Looks great!

Did you paint your compressor housings?

Oh, and don't go canceling your HRPT reservations just yet.

Powder coated them to match the a-arms/springs. Gotta think color-coordination you know!

And no, no matter what I'll be on Tour, either in my car or bumming a ride with someone!

Just giving you the down the road there dude... what sort of coating is that on the manifolds and the turbos?

The manifolds and exhaust housings on the turbos are a titanium 2000 degree coating done by a local shop. The only colors you can get the high heat is that and flat black.

So Jody, I guess you liked my header color so much you decided to copy me? LOL!

That coating looks even better believe it or not after the first few heat cycles. It picks up a subtle sheen that it doesn't really have in the "just coated" state.

I think I need to stop up there for a "status check" on Saturday.

Hey, I have no problem borrowing your good ideas Troy! Actually didn't remember you went with that color, but it looks a lot better than black on my car.
