Default my possible intake set up

Ok here is what i am thinking about doing when I get my EP3( i am gonna start working a dealership thsat sells hondas). I thought about getting a neuspeed Pflo. Now i know that the K series is affect quite a bit by under hood temps so i thought of that also. My plan to for that is two fold. First i would get a hondata intake gasket. I have read that they help keep temps down. Next I would get my header(stock or aftermarket) coated at Jet-Hot. As far as i know that is supposed to greatly reduce temps under the hood. So what do you guys think:
P flo+ hondata IM gasket+ Jet-hot coating on header

When the car is moving, underhood temp isnt really any higher than ambient temp. The IM gasket is still a good idea, as is a header and 2.25" b-pipe for some power. Dont forget the ECU reflash.
