I think an image of deep space would look cool:

No shit Sherlock.. OP stated powdercoat/paint and never clarified which method was used on what..

This "old" thread is relevant to what I'm doing now. You must not know what the search function is for..

Yes but for your benefit you should PM the OP. As you haven't even quoted the thread, the likelihood of you being answered from the OP is much lower.

Good luck w/ your build

Oh, I know what the function is for. Sadly, it is apparent you clearly have *no* idea how to use it.

Your search-fu is non-existent, grasshoppa. Come back and see me in a couple years.

Oh, btw, that "PC'd" he's talking about means POWDERCOATED, in case you haven't figured it out

Since you have such a hard time with searching, here, I'll throw you another bone: http://www.prismaticpowders.com/colors/PSB-4629/

"You must not know what the search function is for.." still *smh*.....

PM'd over a week ago, more than once. As OP did not respond, the likelihood was about the same and the question could of been answered by anyone who had done something similar.

My question was already answered by ESS. I'll add that like myself, not every vendor that sells ESS superchargers knew the answer to the question,"Can you powder coat an intercooled manifold without any damage to the intercooler or its components?" The answer for future and CLEAR reference is YES. ESS actually powder coats them black.

Thanks, should be fun.

Ok junior, first, OP states two different methods in two different threads and one should assume he really means one over the other. Second, lmao, one should be inclined as you to dig around through all of OP's threads started to see if he really means powder coated or painted. I'll hire you next time I'd like to search for something, it'll give you something productive to do..

A link to a powder coating website where they clearly have an "intercooled manifold" they've "powder coated"… *smh* rational thinking definitely not your thing, huh…

Go kick rocks, grasshoppa

*smh*

Dear grasshoppa,

Like I said before, your search skill leaves much to be desired. ESS already made it known that they pc their manifolds.

Additionally, Roman has already posted ON THIS FORUM that you can have the manifold pc'ed, way back in '09.

Finally, thanks for the offer, but you couldn't afford me. You can, however, learn to use the search future and we can call it even.

Sincerely,

Your Sensei

P.S. I don't like kicking rocks....messes with my Xuán Jī Bù.

The purple is pretty cool!
