More stupid questions:
I am quite interested in your shared bits o' knowledge...so...1) what are the reasons stainless or chromed steel exhausts aren't used as much as coated---is it that they don't conduct or route the heat as effectively as insulated pipes? 2) is it purely aesthetic---the ss and chrome turn heat-craze colors? 3) Is jet-coating primarily to contain heat and generate venturi?
