Because I dont think you've thought about the extreame heat that runs through the extractors from the engines red hot exhuast.

LIES :)

i think he means the HPC coating is a chrome look and helps keep the heat inside the pipes and out of engine bay
and in some cases can increase power

Your choices are Jet-Hot in Castlemaine or HPC in Leongatha.

Jet-Hot did my extractors over a year ago. Was about $250 ot $260 maybe.

HPC were a little more expensive.

yeah ceramic coating is the way to go for extractors, it's an option on all pacemakers.
