$500 was pushing it for me. At very least I got the limited feature forsure. Seems interesting.
The coating would have been a good choice none the less.
Tell gs to send u a plug. Or get a wideband lol.
The coating is super useful. Keeps the under hood temps down a good amount.

Im gonna wrap it anyways for now. Maybe later ill get it coated locally. But I doubt it will cost less than the 120 bucks they were charging.

Yea I should have opted for the ceramic coating but I didnt have the money and NEEDED a downpipe fast. Had less than 500 to spend on one tho.

Ive been thru 4 downpipes
A titek innovations catless bellmouth
Helix catted bellmouth
Now I have my perrin catted divorced 1 piece installed but I hate it with a passion cause it fits like crap.
So the grimmspeed will be #4.
God I hope it fits around the 4eat. None of the others have except the titek.
And thats the most coin ive dropped on a downpipe so far.

I'm planning to wrap the pipe as well with the DEI Ti wrap and then spray it with the hi-temp silicon spray.

Regarding the wastegate operation, it should eliminate the turbulance that is prominent with the bellmouth types which could increase the flow, which is a good thing.

I mainly meant versus the non limited version. ( or the maddad/stromung/crucial type that doesn't have the machining done there)
