Just got my RPW Header/Downpipe combo in today! I'm very excited, just by looking at it you can tell this is a QUALITY header. Im having it sent away to Jet-Hot for ceramic coating. This company seems REALLY good. I emailed about pricing and two days later I recieve a fed-ex package with a video tape and full color broschure about them. Im psyched! Only reason im posting is cuz im excited and bored at work, also I wanted to know if anyone has dealt with Jet-Hot before, or has heard of them?

 

I think a few people have gotten it done, but most have stuck with the standard black.

Since there's nothing technical going on here though I'm gonna put this in USLG.

 

oops.. yeah, should have put in USLG.. thanx Hobie!

 

Anytime. Out of curiousity, how much does the coating cost approximately?

 

im shipping it out to them today, gonna cost bout 25 for the shipping, and they said $165 for the header itself and $20 for the downpipe piece (rpw). I just took some before pictures a couple min ago. you can find them here:

ill post some after pix when i get it back, should see it in about a week they said.

 

and how much did you pay for the header/dp, who did you purchase from??

 

i got them both for 365 shipped, ebay

 

do rpw headers make your cel light come on???

 

yes, they will make your cel light come on.

 

i thouhgt they where the only ones who didn't make the cel come on

 

im pretty sure all headers make your cel come on besides the stock ones. anyways goodluck with those rpws, cant wait to buy ur old ones.

 

so you bought a header for 369 and are getting it ceramic coated for 169? that is like 500 bux plus. isnt RRM's ceramic coated for 389?

 

No downpipe, Vince.

And yes, any manifold that removes your pre-cat will trigger a CEL after time, if not immediately.

 

why does it turn CEL on?

 

It's been mentioned a ridiculous amount of times, but it's because the first O2 sensor takes a reading before the pre-cat and the 2nd takes the reading after. They're supposed to return different voltages. Without the pre-cat they both return the same voltage, and therefore the ECU trips a CEL.
