Same here. TTI ceramic coated inside n out. I lay several sheets of plastic on the garage floor during the winter months to eliminate moisture from the concrete. This is mentioned with the TTI paraphanalia. A good polishing w/mothers mag wheel polish 2x a year as well.
yea...my coated TTI headers started to rust the first couple months of being in use...
Buying the headers uncoated is only good if you don't like the chrome looking ceramic. I bought mine used for 400 and it cost me 300 to have them coated satin ceramic. So it basically cost the same price as new TTI headers.
This is going to be the 3rd time these headers have been coated. This is just a sad disappointment in the quality of Jet Hot. If these weren't warrantied for life, I don't know that I would be choosing these guys again.
Just think of how thin the tubes are going to be after media blasting them again, again, and again. Can you say, thin wall?
Funny you mention that. They mailed the headers to me and only took a day. I got them out to look them over and what do I see? 2 PINHOLES on one of the pipes where it turns down from the head! I'm getting a bit frustrated at this point now. I called them and they're going to make it right. Mail them back, fix the holes, and recoat. I don't even know what to say at this point. It's beyond irritating. Their customer service has been fanatic though. I will give them that.
More media blasting. They aren't gonna last. I'd unload em after you get them back and cut the check for another set. Once they see constant heat, nuff said.
