The SLP ceramic coating that is. Is it as good as Jet-Hot? Anybody have any first hand experience with SLP coated headers?

As far as I know nothing is as good as JET-HOT. I'm pretty sure they use micronized silver, and silver is the best conductor of heat. That's why alot of computer people tend to use silver for their high end cooling solutions. I'm a poor highskool kid, so my headers prolly won't be coated

If the normal SLP headers are stainless steel, why get them coated at all?

If you have any more questions on the stainless steel, there was a post a week or two ago about that, or I'm sure somebody here with a background in metalurgy (sp?) will be here soon that can explain this better. Hoped this helped. If you need anything else you can email me. (Click on email button for addy)
