Nope, it is powdercoated on. Definately not going anywhere. This turbo is actually used, so I did not pick the colour.

Powdercoating isnt heat resistant last time I checked.. Either way I would sand blast it or something and get it off. Icky

Like I said, it is a used turbo and it has not come off yet.

Since when is powdercoating not heat resistant?
