Ceramic coating header only vs header/over pipe/front pipe
 
I am having my dump tube recirculated and will be getting the header coated while its removed. Getting the header coated is a no brainer but I am curious if there is any tangible benefit in getting my Perrin over pipe and fa20club front pipe done as well. Any real world experiences would be great!

Overpipe, maybe, anything beyond that, nope. Starts cooling much faster after that point. Overpipe is small too so shouldn't cost much.

imo the header and downpipe is all you need in GA, I dont even have my overpipe coated

I'm just about ready to send my manifold, down pipe, and over pipe out to be coated. Over pipe is so small its going to be cheap enough to do anyway.

Last time I pulled the over pipe just looking at the color of it, if was really getting hot.

I have the header wrapped and downpipe bare. I may end up wrapping the downpipe if it ever comes off for whatever reason.

Not to threadjack too bad but how much wrap are you guys using for your turbo manifolds? I need to order some for my fbm. @pixel67 who is doing your coating? I'm debating swantec

50 foot can do your header nicely, another 25 for the downpipe

Guys at balanced performance farm it out to a local. Not sure who yet.
