Default Ceramic coat for stock exhaust?

I have an extra set of 04 cast iron manifolds and I am thinking of gasket matching and ceramic coating them inside and out for my 04 LS1

Anyone have any thoughts on additional flow(hp) value?

I don't want to go to headers.

I am just guessing but I do not think there will be any measurable gain.

I don't think that it was worth the cost...
