Something that just makes me mad...

Well a couple years ago I got Jet hot lt's COATED well they look fine under the hood. I mean maybe a tad duller nothing bad but man o man underneath is a different story. Everytime I change my oil I get pissed. I just look and see it peeling off from the botom by the collectors and it has rust on them b/c of it. Damn I just need to vent the damn things cost quite a bit, but I guess a rock here and there will chip them enough for them to peel. Well just had to get that off my chest later

I got the same problem with my Hooker LTs that are coated. Although when I had my T/A I had Jet Hots. I put em on in August and they were still looking great when i sold the car in February.

Re: Something that just makes me mad...

geez its not only you, it took mine about three months for mine to completely lose their coating on the collector, then a few months later the rust went half way up the headers. Sure am glad I spent 200 bucks more for the coating. I'll tell you--never again will I get some coating. What for so they can rust! Maybe the black header coating that por 15 has will work better, and its cheaper.

Re: Something that just makes me mad...

Ive had my mac midlengths jet hot coated for over 2 years now, and they are still perfectly fine. It doesnt see snow, so that will help out a lot, but no stones have caused any problems here.

That sucks guys, maybe you can get some sort of compensation, cuz i know they do guarantee their work for a certain amount of time...
