speak to ash (redoctober) he used a place down the road from me who were considerably cheaper than zirotec and the quality seems spot on

Camcoat in Warrington, quality is good. Zircotec want a million quid and 4months ffs.

They look fcking brilliant Ash.

Ash , is there more chance of the rear housing cracking with the coating ?

What are the benefits of using it on a turbo housing over say a jacket ?

Andrew you always ask questions you know the answer too!!!!:):laugh:

ALL the motor sport race cars use it whatever spec and class but I guess I followed their lead and copied.

Ron Dennis and the boys cant all be wrong :wasntme:

I was in comms with zircotec, they want your business but focus on the motorsport and I can't blame them for that as it must rake millions in. Turnaround is weeks and weeks, price is expensive but probably better than camcoat, woman on sales who also does the FB page is the most condescending, ignorant woman in sales ive ever met.

Zircotec have even claimed the "Camcoat" "domain name"on Facebook and promote their products under that name..........thats one wayto destroy the competition! !!

How much they charge to get a exh mani done? Wouldnt mind getting mine done..

Camcoat had 350 off me for them 3 things, I prepped them and dropped em off and collected them.

What's your thoughts on the cold side DG ? Inlet mani has an adapter plate/spacer so I can use a better flowing version .Was considering getting that done as will be losing the std 'bakalite' type gasket carrier that usually sits between .
A lot of this is coming from a purely asthetic viewpoint but if it gains me a few more ponies .....

you can see the amount covered on my vx220 vag conversion thread in project trade account gets 10% off but sure it was nearly 250 delivered

Hi Clee

on the vag conversion the inlet in mid engine layout was def exposed to heat as the turbo hotside was not coated just downpipe and bit extra. Never tested before and after but should help reduce intake certainly from traffic situations and looks nice lol
