Any difference between HPC Coatings and Jet Hot? I've taken a cursory look into both and couldn't tell any difference between the two.

I'm not sure what the differences are. I know people who have got their manifolds Jet Hot coated before. However, one of the guys I know that sells turbos uses hpc exclusively and ha's always had good luck with them.

I e-mailed HPC awhile back and they were very friendly and answered all of my questions. If I was gonna get something coated, I would probably go with them.

Cheers,
Sonny

id wrap it if i were you, i think that there is a much more dramatic heat reduction with wrapping, you can coat the inside and outside and then wrap for more protection but personnaly, id just wrap it 2X instead hehe. my dp is wrapped 8X i can grab it with my bare hand even after i have warmed up the car

even after coating the inside and outside 8X i would not have enuf ***** to grab the downpipe with my bare hands
