You'll want to brush that paint on aerosol paints don't work well on nylon surfaces.

Got it. I like the idea of having it same color as my car with gold flakes. Thatd be sweet

I wonder if you can spray plastic down with an adhesion promotion. Oh yeah you can the real enemy is heat and oil residue. Ask aomeone who deal's in car paint that is more knowable

Or sand it slightly to ruff the surface then get some high heat paint and they also sell high heat primer paint that I could try. And possibly clear coat it. I need to look into getting brush on paint with small fine gold flakes

Maybeee???

Buy a jar of flakes and dump it in your paint of choice

Nah man not at all my ls2 intake is painted with hammers still looks great no bubbling or anything.these nylon intakes will never get hot enough to ruin the finish

Sweet. I'm going to lowes shortly to get some supplies. And finally install my coolant overflow bottle and redo my catch can. Also the last of my stuff for coil overs just came in so those shall be done tonight.

Also could u email me the tune files u used for this set up so I can use as a base line.

yep sure is. youre still running with a cat? if so youll want to re-enable COT and use whatever setting you currently have as the enrichment, same for the cat lightoff tables. which could throw your fueling off. however your also 4700 ft close to sea level so it should all be close.

Yea I still got CAT. Headers are still being made.
I was planning to get rid of the cat anyways so yea. I won't have a wideband installed until headers come. That shouldn't be a problem should it

No that was with stock manifolds and you should be alright with the cat

OK cool. Hpt gets here Monday

Awesome, just make sure under emgie diag you turn on the rear 02 test and re-enable cot till you get headers...
