All of the turbo toyotas come with black Powder coated IC piping. getting the mani, downpipe, and exhaust side of the turbo heat coated was optional, which I also got.
However, I did not opt for getting the intake side polished, which he did, and it looks great!

The only reason why i ask is because mine are poweder coated, and they get HOT. Just driving around town after an hour, ill open the hood and you cant put your hand on it HOT. I know its effecting performance, so i was woundering if jet coating would be a better aternative.

todd sent me the wrong piping. it was suposed to be polished. no big deal though. hes gonna send me polished piping once he gets back from vegas, and i'll send him back this stuff. he is a really great guy to work with. wether the argument is performace, or customer service. turbo toyotas wins in my opinion.

its a t3 60-1 .63 a/r, but you can get the kit with any t3 flanged turbo, and the mani comes with your choice of 38 or 44mm wastegate.
