y pipe paint?
I have seen a few of you have painted the IC tubes and the Y pipes. What temp paint did you use? I have my turbo pulled to be rebuilt and was thinking about painting them. And i have no idea what temp these run at.

I used 1200* spray paint to do my valley, spider and the exhaust all the way back..it comes in many different colors...I used dupont auto paint on my IC pipes..so far its held up good to the heat but its only been a week..the IC pipes scratch very easy so be careful putting them in..i have pic's in my gallery if you want to check it out..i half to say painting my valley orange was a good move....it makes it so easy to take a quick peek for oil leaks..

Ok thanks, i have a can of the 600 deg paint laying around and wanted to see if i could use that. and you just answered it right on.
I'm trying to clean it up so i can see leaks a little more easily.
