Any do exhaust wrap + cermaic coating?

[anguilla1980]

I live in the CA desert and underhood heat can be INTENSE, especially in traffic on 120F+ days.

I had the idea to get my headers ceramic coated inside and out PLUS wrap them. But I have people on certain online forums saying that even with inconel exhaust valves, I'll still burn up my valve and guide.

Is there any truth to this? If so and I can only do one or the other, which of the 2 will reduce heat the most?

Thanks!

I've recently stumbled upon this coating while reading a magazine. Thoughts on this compared to wrap?

I had a pipe done for one of my motorcycles 18 years ago by Swain. It is on my Ducati M900ie and has about 38k miles of run time on it, many at the race track so it has been definitely field tested. It has held up very well, some discolouring but mostly from use and road grime. The coating is completely still bonded and in great shape. Good company and have great products. I would recommend it and Swain.

I used the DEI wrapping to cover just the top and side portion of the headsets so moisture can escape and mitigate any premature rotting.
