So that leaves hedman and who else
And Todd Co, but they're the same thing.

This seems to be the best deal going on a set of Hedmans, and I've looked around a decent amount.

have you seen anything one any use of the flowtech ones?
is it worth it to get the ceramic coated? I think yes, from the stories of thin wall longevity.

ceramic coating yes.
two reasons:
1. headman header suck and will wrought out from the inside out if not coated.
2. you want to remove as much heat as possible from the engine bay, best way is to get rid of all the hot gases passing threw.
But here the key: you want to treat the inside of the header, so it holds the heat in and send it out the exhaust.
if you coat the outside the heat has already transferred to the pipe, so it will radiate under the hood.

have you ever wonder why some chrome exhaust turns blue and some doesn't, ceramic coat on the inside of the pipes

if you want product name pm me

Defender 90 & 110 Range Rover Discovery Headers
Yea, I think that's them. I'm not actually getting them from Todd Co, im getting them from a guy who is swapping a diesel into his D1. Theyre only a couple years old and they've been ceramic coated and never wrapped, so I figure they've still got plenty of life left in them.
