Default How much does powder coating cost?


i was just wondering if anyone who has had the intercooler piping for a procharger powdercoated and has a price estimate on it? is it possible just to paint it yourself with some high temp paint?

you can paint it yourself. Powder coating depends on color, and supply/demand. Like if there is a coater on every corner it would be cheaper. For all the piping I'd expect no more then 200

I doubt the coating will make the airflow better but it should keep the tubes and air charge cooler.

If I am not mistaken if it comes in color it is a paint based coating and not a true ceramic coating.
