powdercoating coldside im making a rear mount setup for my truck and am wondering if its ok to powdercoat my tubing from the turbo to i/c to throttle body.
will it help or hurt with cooling of the air?
thanks, Gary

Powdercoat is somewhat of a thermal barrier, so if you're trying to radiate heat out of the pipe, it's certainly not going to HELP that any. That said, a thin coating isn't a great insulator, so it shouldn't hurt you majorly.
Since you're intercooled, it really shouldn't matter, just don't powdercoat your intercooler.
