so i think im going to ceramic coat my crossover pipe, turbine housing and downpipe
i have a local shop that is going to give me a estimate by Monday but i have been doing research on ceramic coating and ive seen alot of ppl using turbox coating by tech line and in there instructions it says there is no need to bake it as the coating will cure when the pipe get to temp

so using the turbox coating would save me time and money but will it be as good as the shops coating?
also do you guys coat the inside of the turbine housing as well when you do it?

thanks guys

 

Anybody?
I think I'm going to try the turbo x coating, I just need to know whether to coat the inside of the turbine housing or not
Thanks

 

I use a place in Auburn WA called Performance Coating, they always coat the inside of my turbine housings, I trust their experience.

 

thanks man
ive been researching and from what i have found is that many ppl when using the turbox coating, coat the inside of the turbine and since it cures with exhaust heat, if there is a clearance issue the turbine will simply clearance itself with no ill effect since the coating is pretty soft until cured

 

pm killer-ls1. hes in the western section as well. im not sure where he got his setup coated, but it might have been local. (oc area)

 

You can use TurboX without baking it first, but you have to be very careful before running the engine, as the uncured coating is very easy to scratch.

 

IF you cure it properly and don't scratch it does it do well?

How much does it cost? I also used the WA location great service but shipping and delay are not optimal.

 

All the stuff I've got ceramic coated lately is basically the same price as powder coating. That should give you an idea on cost.

 

call the guys at techline, they're very very very helpful. call the orange county number though, as when i called the TX number no one picked up.

 

If you don't mind shipping your parts to get coated I'd check out swaintech. I got their coating on my hotparts and couldn't be happier. Haven't ran it yet, but from the people I've talked they have said that swaintech is some pretty high temperature stuff and will hold up well.

Here is a couple pics.
