Kevin,
No place in NOVA does jet-hot coatings. A couple do hi temp powdercoats( American Stripping), but not true jet hot. I just sent my custom 4"catback and midpipe to Jet Hot in Mississippi. They used to have a branch in PA, but recently closed it. I had a set of intercooler pipes done awhile ago and was so happy with the results and finish. Shipping on the other hand was another story with them(took them 3 weeks to ship my pipes back) -Jon |

Do you know if the hi-temp powder coating works very well? Also, any idea on a price range for this kind of work?
Thanks Kevin |

It has pretty good rust protection, but as performance goes(keeping heat in or out) it is lacking compared to a ceramic coating.
The headers will probably generate too much heat for the powdercoat. you'd need somthing in the 2000F range to be safe from blistering the coat. -Jon |

I don't know if this makes sense or not, but would a Jet-Hot coating on a N/A header help keep down the likelyhood of throwing a cell code since the exhaust temps will stay higher, thereby keeping the O2 sensors happier?

Actually, 1600* paint will flake off like you wouldn't believe. That stuff might be good for N/A cars, but I'd go 2000*. When talking to Jet Hot a few years ago, this is what they recommend for Turbo'd engines also...
