Ceramic coating intercooler piping.
When you coat the external and internal surfaces of your exhaust system you ll improve their performance and longevity and possibly avoid costly repairs later.
If this were a header then you would want this but we are talking intake pipes where cooler is better.
Polishing vs ceramic coating intercooler piping.
There is a reason they tell you not to paint a radiator aluminum as it reduces it s efficiency.
Jet hot coatings are high performance ceramic coatings for exhaust headers side pipes manifolds intakes mufflers turbo housings and other parts.
Learn why industry leaders recommend that you get your vehicle jet hotted.
Ceramic coating was initially developed for the aerospace industry and like powdercoat it found its way into the automotive industry.
A ceramic coating will simply keep the outer layer of the piping cooler and this gives you no advantage performace wise.
On my non intercooled flatty ovcp i used a thermal dispersant coating to try and get rid of heat faster.
My intercooler pipes are black painted if you prep and paint it correctly it will hold and look good.
Ceramic coating can be applied to any exhaust piping turbochargers housings and much more.
So you ve reduced the thermodynamic efficiency by coating the intercooler with a ceramic coating.
Ceramic header coatings by jet hot improve the look and performance of your vehicle by reducing heat and corrosion.
I did ceramic coat my intercooler piping on my mpi car it uses an air to water intercooler ceramic coated that too and routes the cold side across above the radiator.
It s essentially a high solid paint product that s concentrated with ceramic powder and provides a durable finish that reduces heat transfer when cured.

We can apply this coating to intake manifolds or any part you want to stay cool.
We also offer thermal dispersant coatings that will act as a radiator or intercooler which helps remove heat from the parts its applied to.
I would not coat any intercooler pipes.
Copper is a much better conductor of heat than aluminum but aluminum is lighter and you can put more tubes in the same amount of space thus.
