Default Jet Hot question

Has anyone ever had a full length set of headers coated by these guys?
If so, how much did it cost and how long has it lasted?

In my opinion it will be cheaper to buy them coated.

Well, they were freebies
A buddy wrecked his ride before he installed them.....and they were sitting in his garage for about 2 years until he found and in turn gave them to me.....
they are Mac 1 5/8" and they have the HTS coating on them....he had mentioned it doesn't last long......
so...I was trying to get a feel of price and durability. Or either someone's take on the headers themselves....good or bad...not that I'm going to gripe....FREE! I like those

could always get the powdercoated, not sure what the temp tolerances is on the average stuff but I know if it's not high enough they have stuff that is.

arcane I got Mac headers and if the coating is the same, they have lasted a long long time for me and have not rusted at all! You could always call MAC and see what they say about the coating too, there is a label on the driver's side header with info about them that they may need to identify them, so check it out first and write it down before you call them.

**** man throw them on and run them like they are.

I actually painted mine (BIg waste of time a year later) but the next ones i get will either be ceramic coated or chrome.I love the way they blue.But the only bad thing is they rust and pit.So ill most likely get ceramic coted but dont know.
