OK, 2 apologies:
I nicked this from Rennlist but not everyone here is on there.
It's primarily Turbo specific.
Is the inlet manifold better to be thermal coated to prevent heat transfer or to promote heat transfer? In answering bear in mind that the turbo sits directly below the inlet manifold but also that the air inside it has been compressed but passed through the intercooler.
My guess would be that the external temps would be higher (so it should be protected against heat transfer) but Rennlisters seem to think otherwise. Anyone got any opinions to share?![. [FONT=verdana,geneva"] [FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif)
