Jet Hot did a friend of mine's intake on his Dodge and it came out great. I had an intake done at my local powder coating shop and I have had no problems. The important thing is that you get someone to do the coating in a temperature rated coating that will match what you are doing. Example--Exhaust should be 1200 degree high temperature coating, where an intake could be done in a lower temp. The Jet Hot coating is designed to be for High Temp and it is a shiney finish. I had my TPI parts coated in a silver metal flake clear and it came out great. The cost is up to those that are doing the work. My shop charged me $150 for everything that I had done, but there were a lot of pieces. The minimum at the powder coater I used is $35.00.
