GT-K 650 Turbonetics Turbocharger (575-700HP). These types of ceramic coatings are also available in multiple colours, from flat black to bright red. What do you do to keep your turbine housing free of rust?
If your not comfortable separating the turbine housing you can send the entire turbo in for us to do it. It does not use nanotechnology and is designed to bond on top of surfaces. Just the way the harnesses go to hell on some models would be a reason to drop under hood temps. This coating is highly recommended for exhaust components that have high amounts of heat as turbo housings, manifolds or any type of ferrous or non-ferrous items that requires long term protection as underbody parts, chassis, wheel arches, suspension parts and much more. Lower temp ceramic coatings are often used on things like differential housings, valve covers, engine blocks, motor mounts, and radiator stays. Being that a combustion engine must inhale fuel and air prior to sparking a combustive burn, so too must it exhale spent exhaust fumes afterward.
With the smaller, more restrictive housings on the newer turbos, this is one of the best options for increasing flow through the turbine housing, adding to performance and power. Turbonetics exclusive Black-Chrome Perma-Coating also comes standard for heat reflection away from the compressor housing to aid in lowering compressor wheel inlet temperatures and gives these units great looks to match their performance. What are ceramic coatings good for? Copyright information.
It's an oven cure ceramic thin film thermal barrier coating, designed to be applied on the top of pistons, top of valves and the combustion chamber on a cylinder head. These are suitable for coating exhaust tips, where EGTs are the lowest. It will stop rust creep through the surface and will stay looking great for many years to come. High-temperature ceramic coatings are designed to prevent corrosion of items that are prone to high heat. Plasma coats can be applied to any alloy, cast iron, steel or stainless steel products. Prevent Corrosion and Discoloration. So before I say anything, yes I do perform powder coating services, but this test was performed with integrity, and could be performed in your garage w the exact same findings. Protect Other Parts. However, this is NOT the same sort of ceramic coating product as the one found within a shiny bottle of Armor Shield IX. • Turbine Housings (Highly recommended).

Turbonetics HP Compressor Wheels are made of 354 heat treated aerospace aluminum and are manufacturers utilizing Hot Isostatic Processing (HIP) to allow these wheels to be incredibly strong when paired with the Map Enhancement Porting of the GT-K compressor housings, these wheels flow huge volumes of air at high pressure ratios while still delivering a cool efficient intake charge. Next up, wrinkle black. This coating also protects against thermal fatigue, rust, corrosion, oxidation, and metal fatigue in the harshest conditions protecting against damaging elements that will increase the life of your parts many times over. Aerodynamics is what separates the GT-K turbo line from the competition. It can be applied to aluminium, stainless steel, carbon steel, chrome, and cast iron. Turbine housings will feature high temperature ceramic coating to trap exhaust gas energy inside the turbine housing for greater energy delivery and faster response time (Spool), as well as keeping the engine compartment temperatures low. 00 addtional on return shipping due to the larger box and weight difference. Being that it's typically just a tad more expensive than the average low-temp ceramic coating spray, the medium grade stuff strikes a nice balance between affordability and high-temp functionality.
Let me know what you guys have done on this subject! Many exhaust-oriented ceramic coating sprays can withstand exposure to temperatures of 1200° Fahrenheit mark for long periods of time, with extreme temp products handling over 2500° of sustained heat. Exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) for these vehicles regularly see 500 degrees, and some of them go beyond 1500. This means more energy to spool up a turbo or make a collector work better. Knowing which one to spray, and where it will perform best will determine the level of efficiency and longevity a part will experience, so choose wisely, and when in doubt ask a reputable installer for their opinion. When it comes to performance upgrades under the hood, it pays to get the best and protect it. This is a $100 service which goes into the quoted repairs/upgrade if the customer is happy and wishes to proceed. So if you have a project car and like to show off your clean engine bay this is for you. Parts will get washed with a good degreaser and then dried. It may cost you a little extra, but you'll reap a host of benefits for your foresight.
Alloy plasma coating has a light semi-rough finish that also helps to disguise some corrosion pitting left behind after blast cleaning. Ceramic is a highly durable substance that resists corrosion and stands up to a large amount of abuse. Keeps the engine compartment cooler. This decreases back pressure, which improves the efficiency of the engine. The starting price for this service is $140. What's their concentration? As exhaust oriented parts get hot (we're talking glowing levels of heat here), and then begin to cool, the metals within these components go through a "thermal cycle. The GT-K family has been designed for maximum performance utilizing the most advanced turbocharger engineering and components. If you've chrome headers in the past, you have likely noticed that discolouring on bends. 68 A/R, F1-65 Trim Wheel. Regular Price: $1, 749. Ceramic coating to turbine and compressor housings, prices can change without notice, so please contact us for latest pricing.
When Rose Rage Turbos repair/upgrade/hi-flow your turbocharger, the cleanup process is included in the quoted prices. Stock manifolds, as mentioned above, are better at retaining heat in the exhaust system. Every turbocharger is different in condion so an initial quote is not really accurate until inspection has been completed, but we try our best. This means the headers will last a lot longer than without the coating. One of the key differences between high-temperature ceramic coating sprays and a DIY nano ceramic coating like Armor Shield IX, is that one sits on the surface, while the other embeds into it.
Let's get this out of the way: the ceramic coating you apply on your body panels as paint protection is not the same as the ceramic coating you apply on manifolds, headers, turbocharger housings, and other components of your exhaust system. While there's no way to completely avoid heat leak, uncoated headers don't do a very good job of insulating the exhaust gas, and the heat that's lost affects the headers and the parts surrounding them. Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) with improved resistance against, thermal cycling to prevent problems of over-heating in the hot sections such as manifolds & exhaust systems. It also improves the effectiveness of the catalytic converter, allowing it to reduce your vehicle's emissions, which is better for the environment. Heat at these levels is enough to do some serious damage to a vehicle if not properly disposed of.
