Jet hot actually sent me a package in the mail w/ a video and a brochure and what not. I couldnt find prices on their webpage, and they didnt include prices in the package they sent me. However i believe that its $179 to have the headers coated, and then they charge per foot on the y pipe. Plus you need to pay for shipping. depending on the headers you want to buy i guess you can buy them straight from jet hot, and not pay as much in shipping and prolly get a little discount on the original cost of the headers.

Does anyone know where to find a real catalogue?

Plan on spending anywhere from $250-275 for the headers and y pipe. If I were you I would call them more than once because for some odd reason they give different prices each time. Who knows, they might even give you a good deal. Oh, and don't forget to mention thirdgen.org. They give discounts for that.

Jet Hot offers some headers direct from them, already coated. That way you don't have to send them in to be coated. My Hooker 2055's were $520 shipped, including y-pipe.

Now I heard that you can use thermal tape instead of jet hot coating which would be considerablely cheaper but i'm also sure it won't work nearly as well.
Could you accualy do this?

get them coated, they last longer then uncoated one, look great and keep under hood temps down.

Sure ya can, but it doesn't look nearly as good and the coating works better I believe. Spend the extra money and get them coated- you won't regret it

Do not use Header Wrap. Deff get em coated.
Shop Around jet Hot isnt the only one to do headers.
