Same as Forcefed. Rustoleum.
Still looks fine.
Insides of my down pipe rusted pretty good as well.

Does that Rustoleum paint have any heat insulating properties that you can tell, or is it simply a protective coating?

I used that on my brake rotors. Not bad.

How is it holding up on the turbo's?

A shop local to me that black ceramic coated my LT headers is going to black ceramic coat my entire hot side piping pieces and the exhaust side housing on my turbo....$300.00

The exhaust housing alone I think was $35.00

I have used nitro plate and the under hood temps were great. I usually just wrap now though. I like to be able to modify the kit if needed in the future without dealing with a coating.
