Lots of good posts and products on this thread, I have ordered the Fuel Moto 2-1-2 Headpipe. ( non-ceramic). But the ceramic looks awesome I have to admit. Cant wait to get them installed. Jamie, how will it perform and sound with Rush 2.5 slip-ons. I have the stage one with TTS Mastertune. I went with the 2.5's because of the cat. Will it be loud enuff for a middle age crisis?
Thanks!!!

This cures the coating and will keep it from blistering. You also might want to take it outside the garage, it stinks like you can't believe.

What difference does it make if the shields are on or off?

I am guessing it helps keep the hose clamps from fing up the coating not sure tho.

Probaly wont "cure" correctly with the heat shields on. Surface needs to be exposed to let heat dissipate. I cant believed I tried to answer this, hell, I dont know!
