Curious to how much getting your manifold coated costs (non stock)? Thanks for any info


Why does your mani look chrome, while the ones on there site look they a gray textured color?

depends on the coating, I got the silver ceramic, the can do different types of coating for a price of coarse. As for a price, you should have to contact them.

You like a less effective coating that will be peeling later down the road? My Buschur has started flaking...good thing I have a PPI Swain coated/ported mani coming in the mail

Seriously, when I had my Buschur on there, I thought it would put out less heat than it did. I am hoping for a significant reduction with the Swain coated manifold, plus my 02 housing and turbine housing will be Swain coated too

It will turn gray and flake nonetheless. Looks great at first just like my thread showing the exact same thing, but it doesn't last long.

Its the same coating man. You got the Jet Hot coating and it will peel eventually just FYI. The swain coating is more money and doesnt looks as nice, but it functions WAY better than the jethot crap. Trust me!

The Swain coating looks great...just go get some 1200 degree paint at Kragen Autoparts. My Works 02 housing is now stealth black

Yeah, FYI, the coating on my Works DP is similar to JetHot. It peeled off right where the DP bends. I don't feel like going through the hassle of taking it off and sending it to Works, especially since I have an 02 bung w/ wideband on there.

If it peels it peels, no biggy, I will be very pleased with the port job done.

I'm painting all my hot parts black too. I could never live with that bright white color under my hood.

Looks awesome! Glad to see the clear pictures. Was this the coating we provided or did you have it done?

Even though Swain may cost more we still can get the less expensive intially better looking coating for anyone who requests. I like the Swain because of its white look, although soon my EVO wheels will be white so consider the source here!
