ENGINE BAY TEMPS

[alfasteve]

Does any one here has experience with the coatings this company applies

If it really works that great as the exhaust wrap this is the way to go or is there a catch

No experience of temperatures yet but I have just had my exhaust coated in the diamond black.

The biggest problem is the just over £1000 cost.

It does look good and they were efficient but only time will tell.

Had my headers and cats done recently - can't scientifically tell where the benefit is at present, but it does seem a lot cooler locally in the bay and appears to be an excellent product. Mine is the rather odd sounding antique silver which I'd never have picked out unless I'd seen it in the flesh - they do many colours depending on your needs (and wallet ). I've posted some pics on another recent thread - let me know if you can't find them.

Cheers

Thankls guys I think I will do this treatment as engine bay temp and also durabilaty of the headers is improved with this treatment.

I got this by coincidence as I bought some parts of an LMP team and some exhaust pipes with this treatment where included and I think thats a good way forward

My step sons Evo had his manifold coated but it peeled off. They gave him another one allready coated and it peeled as well. Not sure why but he wasn't happy. I think they are a reputable company they do a lot of F1 stuff just unlucky I think

Would recommed Zircontec, being uing turbine enigines in the marine world for years - always perform, always deliver, would like to use more but of constraints...

Woof coatings for what seems after some investigation to be the same process but at a much lower price.

I had zircotec on my Noble headers and d/pipes really made a big difference to the under clam temps.
I have Heard Woof are also good and cheaper.
