need help finding black manifold!

i wanna say around 6-8 months ago, someone posted up some pictures of an east coast company who manufactured flat black turbo manifolds looked really clean had very good welds, dyno tested as well with good results, i did some searching around and couldnt find the same company or the pics(on here of course) if anyone knows the URL or if anyone knows the company name let me know, because i plan on buying one from them if i can find them, thanks guys

Powdercoating will last for about 10 mins.

What you saw was HPC HiPerCoat Extreme. I have it on my ported oem exhaust manifold. It's awesome.

You can get any manifold power and ceramic coated. This might be youer best option.
