    West Coast Specialty Coatings in Concord cerakoted my manifolds. Dunno how much they actually help heat wise but they look nice. If you dig through my build thread you can see photos somewhere along the line.

            Are they ceramic coated? How's that holding up?

              Beautiful car. Glad D talked some sense into you ;). Color combo is amazing...And for once I agree on the transmission, it's getting annoying how good autos are nowadays.

                        For borrows, or for keeps? You could borrow mine to get through smog if you need it.

                                completely random place to ask this question, but I believe I can find my answer here...

                                whats the size of the dual piping from the cat to the muffler on a stock E36 setup?
