Hey geoff..you really need to show pics of the cut away mani's you had on display at SEMA this year. That way people can see how thick the material is and the weld penetration on the inside....from that i can see why you boast a life time warranty.
( I didnt bring my ruler to SEMA so im not going to make a guess at the wall thickness....but i was like wow. )

My understanding is that it works well on SS as long as the manifold has been blasted with an appropriate media. If the wrong media is used, the surface does not form a good bond with the coating and it can flake off...

Geoff,
This is my first post!
I will be purchasing an EVO IX RS within the next month(currently have an '06 STI).
What is the difference between your ProStreet and ProStock manifolds?
If you guys think SwainTech is a waste of money...
it certainly helped me to run a 12.3 @ 111.2mph on my stock-turboed STI on 93 octane. That's no easy feat, especially with 48lbs of wheel and tire per corner, and a rinky-dink turbo.
I look forward to sharing with everyone my buildup and progress going into the next year.

I have seen how hot a turbo manifold get under heavy load. If you were to heat-wrap the manifold, would the heat build up too high and melt the manifold? I would never use theat swain coating simply because it looks horrible...but the kevlar heat wrap (header wrap) works great and looks better...(IMO of course)
