Had mine done on my 03 STI at TSL in the Midlands.
They are very helpful so should be able to give you advice if nothing else mate. TSL MOTORSPORT | Subaru Mitsubishi Peugeot Classics | parts | repair | servicing | performance tuning | UK
I had a package done so difficult to give you a price but give them a bell mate.

Tracktive sold me mine already coated. Cost me a fortune and tbh, and this is imho only, i think with Richard Bulmar working for both TSL (previously) and now Tracktive, i think they use the same headers anyway and possibly the same firm for cermamic coating, BUT that is only my opinion.
From them it aint cheap i can tell you that. There will be cheaper places out there i think.

I've used Camcoat in the past, and NEVER again !

IMHO, Zircotec, or Woolf are FAR superior products.

Excuse my ignorance, but what benefits are to be seen with ceramic coating? And how far should you take it? i.e. pistons/valves/turbo/headers/exhaust etc....And at what level does it start making a worthwhile difference?
