By the way the Pipes look awesome!!!!! 471795[/snapback] I posted on this a while back. I was considering having my T5's Thermal coated (Jet-Hot). All of my cars with headers have ceramic coated finishes. Now, I haven't seen quad applications where dyno comparisons have been done, but I can tell you that the primary reason for HP increases in automotive applications are due to lower underhood temperatures due to the less heat sync from the coated headers into the intake air under the hood. In a quad application this would seem to be far less of an issue (open-air). However, there is no doubt that ceramic coating looks amazing for years, and could prevent the pipes from getting as hot to the touch.
