Default Powder coating turbos?
I was debating powder coating the cool side of my turbos and the charge pipes.

Any harm in doing this?

90% of all intercooler piping ends up powdercoated. Even a lot of the ebay 'polished' stuff is either powdercoated or plated.

Turbos are powdercoated and even water wrapped everyday. You're fine.
