Ceramic Coated Corsa X pipe
I always get my exhaust coated and now offering it to the community. I can have them done in black or silver like mine

Does it ever make the any car louder?
From my understanding the heat meeting the air is what produces a lot of the sound we hear and since the coated exhaust tubing is now transferring the heat out the rear rather than radiating it under the car I would think theoretically it would be slightly louder

I've installed 6 on local customers z06's. Yes louder for sure. Do to my other car blowing up am not doing headers. I will be removing stock exhaust manifolds and then coating them also

Cool. That was always a theory of mine, but was never able to test it by hearing a non coated system first to compare it to.
I worked for a hot rod restoration shop where we would tig an entire system up from scratch and then just immediately send it off to JetHot.

Your thoughts on wrapping the x-pipe with header wrap? I will be getting the Borla x-pipe and have thought of doing this just to control the heat from the tunnel & floor. Since the wrap is supposed to control the heat even more that the coating I wonder what that would do to the sound?

Is there any heat-cure cycle to follow immediately after coating.
This will definitely help in lower hood temperatures as the coating will act like an insulator, not sure how much stress it would add to the metal itself.
please bear with me for asking so many questions

Good up to 2500 degrees.
I will be porting my manifolds and doing them along with the cat pipes.
No heat cycle just put it on and go

Very nice! I'm wishing I would have gotten my Borla X-pipe coated. I'm tempted to pull it off and get it done now!

Very nice! I am tempted to pull mine off this winter sometime and get it coated. Great to see a vendor offering this.
