Default Thninking about Ceramic Coating

Well, I have been lurking for a while and I am considering my first mod . I already have the carrera tensioners and pop off valve and think Im going to go with a set of coated headers and Triad or Bursch Muffler . There is a place in town www.performancekote.com . I searched on here and it looks like others have had success with them . I am also thinking about that I might atempt my first valve adjusment while things are out of the way .

b/c they have been sold a bill of goods that it will increase hp etc. etc. and that Porsche did it

actually Porsche used ceramic inserts MUCH closer to the (in the) exhaust ports -- that's where it really does some good
