I'm no expert in the relm your venturing into. I can understand doing the headers and any exhaust pipe within the engine compartment. That's where the heat is going to get trapped and slow you down (heat soaking). Not sure what benifit there would be from coating the Cats/midpipe/x-pipe/suitecase(s)/handbag(s). That's where I'm at a loss. Would you want to keep heat in those areas that are outside the engine compartment or would you want to disperse the heat there. I must qualify that my CATs are not in the engine compartment... LT headers take them out of there. (in reply to topbanna3767) Post #: 5

HOT, anyway that stuff will take up to 2000 degrees. It shouldn't hurt anything and results will be interesting to read about. Don't tell us what color you went with (Black, Aluminum or Copper) and we can start a pool on what your color choice was (in reply to Midnight Blue) Post #: 8
