I took my Turbonetics exhaust manifold, turbine housing and some five star DSM rims into Stanley Distribution for ceramic coating/powder coating a few weeks back. We picked everything up last night. Everything looks great!

    Some people say not to power coat the flange side of the exhaust manifold....there was just a thread where someone asked this question. Most of the guys said not to, just an fyi.

    Um, if that manifold and turbine housing are powdercoated and not ceramic coating than you can say goodbye to how nice they look, it won't stand up to that heat...

    If those are ceramic coated how much did it cost?

    The wheels are powder coated and the other stuff is ceramic coated.

    You'd have to call him for pricing

    Rims look AWESOME!!!!!! Steer clear of curbs... They have a great way of poping out to say hello once you get something nice.

    We usualy do mask off the flanges on the ceramic parts, but this one was rusting just sitting in the shop once we blasted it so I wanted to make sure it did not rust while the parts were sitting around.
