If you haven't seen the video of the Roadkill Garage guys on Enginemasters dyno test of ceramic vs uncoated vs painted vs. wrapped headers, it's worth the watch. I don't believe they tested ceramic inside the headers just outside, but the net scientific result was it does close to nothing to keep heat in the headers (~10F degrees IIRC). The only somewhat appreciable difference was using the unloveable fiberglass wrap.

If your goal is to keep the exhaust looking good and easy to clean, ceramic works great based on my buddy's 3.2 with ceramic coated headers and muffler.
