Hey everyone, i need some opinions i am going to buy the full race pro stock manifold for my X and am wondering if the titanium version is just as durable as the regular one i would prefer the titanium one just want to make sure there isnt a sacrifice in reliability.... thanks !

 

they make titanium ones now?? WHHAATTTT!!!

 

+1. Is this something new? Don't see a titanium one on Full Race's website. Only stainless steel.

 

wow, does it cost the same as a built short block??? lol!

 

well i think its a coating? if you go on the website and click the prostock mani for the X the product options for the manifold says 2000 deg. Titanium for $145.00 more

 

I'm sure its just the colour of the coating

 

I don't see it being worth the money. I mean your gonna pay out the *** for a titanium. If it is i coating then I still don't see it being worth it. You can get it Swane coated for cheaper. Performance wont change any only difference is if it is titanium not just coating then it will be lighter.

 

thanks and i agree with you but it is a coating do you think that it will keep heat temperatures lower? because the titanium coating is only 150 more and it says 2000 degrees im not sure what is meant by this

 

titanium might be stronger than SS and therefore can handle more heat before weakening but i don't see how it insulates temperature. sounds like marketing to me.

 

Ceramic coating is way worth it on exhaust manifolds....all hotside components for that matter!

 

A nice option. We race with the Full-Race manifold and yes folks it does get hot... I wrapped it with some nice heat wrap beforehand and it has burned it off. I've heard that you can shorten the life of the manifold with any kind of wrap or coating, but I'm not sure what the conditions have to be nor how much shorter it's life might be if you have it coated. I'm not even sure if it makes sense to have a manifold live very long. I mean, what's it going to do as it gets older? Complain, play cards all day, forget to take their pills and just make life hell for your new young exhaust or down pipe...
