Can you share what type of pricing to get something like this done? I was thinking of having my SW Headers and exhaust done when I pull them back out of the truck next winter to add more cubic inches. Need to add this to the budget.

It is not coated on inside, all my reading/research show no real gains from doing the insides of the pipes. For the level of effort/expense to do that right it is almost impossible to get a solid spray on the inside of most pipes (with curves, etc).

That being said the coating reduces the underhood temps, which means i should be sucking in air that is a bit cooler and make a few extra HP. It should also afford me slightly better longevity for various underhood components. Really it comes down to dropping underhood temps for me, and getting better heat scavenging for the headers/exhaust. Only good things come from lowering underhood temps 20-60 degrees. Which reminds me i need to buy some sensors to log that drop in temps.

Thanks for the info. I'll check it out.

No prob man, im impressed at the quality of the coating so far. I have seen other swaintech coated headers in the past so im not to worried about the performance side of it.
