ok ive searched and i get weird threads. Can someone give me a straight answer to the difference between Techline and JetHot? I just got a HKS Dp and would like it coated but dont know where.

I live 50 mins away from techline and that can save me shipping. Any feedback would help.

Also does anyone have pics of bronze rims on a silver car? Does that even look good?

Check out CalicoCoatings.com They do work for Nascar and they're in North Carolina. I just had my dp coated for less than 60 bucks plus $15.00 shipping. The Coolblack coating is good for extented use at 1700 deg. and it looks nice. Shipping will cost you more but it's probably cheaper than anywhere else.

i just got the jethot 2000 coat on my HKS downpipe for 100 + shipping there (which was like 20). It was a very quick turnaround they said it would take 2 weeks after they received it, but it only took like 1 or maybe 1.5 weeks. very solid coating inside and out, just remember the coating will smoke a LOT for it to bake on the coat when you first turn on the car.

i guess i don't have any number data to prove that it helped out any, but the dp sure made my stock twins spool faster!

All the coatings are pretty much the same. I use the Turbo X coating from techline quite a bit and it looks good. If you have a sandblaster and air brush you can buy the techline coatings from caswellplating.com and do it yourself. Just make sure you stir it really well as the ceramics, or whatever they put in it, tends to clump in the bottom of the container. http://www.caswellplating.com/aids/techline/index.html
The coatings require baking and shouldn't be baked in a home oven as the women in your household will get really pissed off. Especially when they come home and the house is filled with acrid fumes. Plus, it can be a health issue. You can half cure the turbo X at 500 degrees for one hour and then finish the cure on the car if its used for a manifold or DP that'll reach close to 1000 degree temps. Full cure is 1000 degrees for one hour off the top of my head. One of these days I'm going to buy a radiation themometer and see if it's as good of a thermal blocker as they claim.
