make sure everything fits first

I'm not sure about 'headers' but with my extractors I was told by a Sydney coater to use them for a period before coating. The downside was that a cost of $60 was added by hpc to clean them before the coating. In terms of pre-coating requirements I suggest you call hpc and ask. In terms of the build I would first run the car and have them coated later otherwise Murphy's Law will come in to play.

Also, I'm a little bit sorry I had the aluminium finish I think I would have the grey if was to do it again.

I got mine done by the guy at brendale, $380 for four into ones.
Good job.

Make sure they coat the inside as well! :3DSMILE:

Coating
 
Coating is a must, better HP, cooling, longevity anew so on.

Just have them done after you dyno the car, the dyno fades them.

Here ya go these guys were pretty cheap I thought and close to us.

I found some others in the states that do fancier stuff but a lot dearer. I have some stainless guys that do lazer cut that could make something fancier if you want but I haven't priced that option yet.
