Re: jet hot hooker headers (1996man)

I looked into the exact same thing, you are correct about the coating. HPC Inc. sends advisors down to Hookers' coating plant in Tijuana, Mexico from time to time, seems like they need alot of help. I've heard enough about the quality of Hookers ceramic coating to decide its more than worth it to get a better job done. A pretty decent job is done on the outside of their headers (although the quality tends not to be uniform), however THEY DO NOT COMPLETELY COAT THE INSIDE.

Discounted by 30% (as a CF member), I was quoted $680 total for the #2149's directly from Jet-Hot. I would suggest contacting Matt Petrauskas at (800) 432-3379.

I'm going with HPC coatings because they are welding an o2 bung relocate (to collector) for me for the same total price, I'm ordering from JEGS and having the Hookers drop-shipped with the HPC Utah facility.

Re: jet hot hooker headers (1996man)

I recently placed an order with Jet Hot. Hooker Super Comps. w/ their Sterling coating inside and out = $ 582.00 total to my door(N.J.) They seem very "together" on the phone and their headers coatings have a fine reputation. Purchasing from Jet Hot is cheaper than buying elsewhere then shipping/coating by them.

:iagree: Jet-Hot does a nice job and the price was right. I only have the shorties from hooker, but they are nice.

Bradvet,
Does Jet Hot give CF members a discount of 30% :confused:

I just got a quote from them to cote my long tube headers and if there is
a discount I will be extremely pleased :yesnod:

Hope you read this and let me know.

Re: jet hot hooker headers (Strick)

$680 sure seems like a hell of a lot of money but then again i guess if you have a set of headers that will pratically live longer than the car then it might be a little bit more worth it not having to worry about them

Re: jet hot hooker headers (85vet)

85vet, yes they say 20%, I talked them into another 10%. I forget how I did that, it was about 2 months ago when I first considered Jet-Hot. The discount applies to the cost of their coating, and is not applied to the cost of the headers, in case anyone is wondering.

I believe bigjack got a quote for 2151's that would explain the $100 difference.

You're right, it ain't cheap! :eek: If you're keeping the car and/or aren't interested in going thru the he** of replacing them maybe another time then its more than worth it. We're talking about another $200 over top the cost of the headers. You'll have to decide if its right for you or not. :cheers:
