Hi guys,

I have done my LCB manifolds for my Midget from a company called Performance 1 Coatings and really happy with the result.

As far as I was told by the guys, can't really compare with Zircotec's plasmas-spray coating but it is a good balance between quality/price.

"Plus Zircotec royally screwed up a turbo from an F40 LM not too long ago..."?
What happened with this? Anyone knows???? I'm intrigued now....

Cheers

Re. The F40, not entirely sure this is what Mini 360 was on about but I found this with a Google search. Don't think it actually affected the turbos, more of a "what could of happened" situation

It depends what manifold you are wrapping?

It's worth doing, especially for the centre branch where it passes under the inlet, but some manifolds give better power than others.
