I believe my headers and up-pipe together were about £300 (it was just part of the cost of the work), so £175 sounds about right for the turbo housing.

Approx £300-£350 for manifold and up pipe for very good quality ceramic coatings.

There are many companies offering coating services, and like most things, the quality varies dramatically. Just because two coatings LOOK the same, doesn't mean they work the same.

Having tried several of them, the only company I use, or recommend is Zircotec high temperature coatings, ceramic coatings, engine, automotive and motorsport, exhaust manifold and header coatings.

Default YES !

Rick is currently in negotiation with the owner of said facility.

It is available for "private" use on a daily basis.

A few years back my boss/BDMC used to run a multi-venue stage rally inc. Elvington. Was fun setting up !

LOL
