The price includes a hot tank dip and a media blasting job on all parts, so no just send them your old crusty parts and they com out like this. They are at www.jet-hot.com

Sure glad you posted this! The work is beautiful and I just went to their website and saw that they are only 20 miles South of where I live! Their business just increased!

That looks awesome, although I am embarrassed to admit that I thought jet hot coating went on the INSIDE of headers, like the ceramic liners that were addded to the later 911s. I had heard jet hot coating somehow keeps the heat in the exhaust and not sinking back into the engine parts...is this true?

Jet Hot coats both the inside and outside of the headers. Being the skeptic I am i checked. I used my friends borescope to check, and they are indeed coated on the inside

They look absolutely beautiful !!!! I think IŽll have to contact them too.... Did they coat the heat exchangers too? In and out? If they did , how does it affect the heat exchanger performance?I mean the heating.Most likely they will last a lot longer !!!! Iam amazed.... and already thinking of what parts to send for them!!!

The cool thing about Jet-Hot is that it stays that color for ever. My dad has had it on his car for 5 years and no color change!

I read many stories from archives about this JETHOT thing.They are NOT all that positive.But I think mainly you are not doing much damage by using them.Atleast you should get good looks and some more years out of your expensive exhaust parts.Or am I wrong?

No, I agree. I will be happy if it just keeps the exchangers from rotting out. That is really the goal, anything else is just gravy.
