Ceramic all teh way. Keep the heat in the exhaust so it flows away from teh head faster and keep the heat out of the engine bay.

Just a little side topic for this one...any kind of header you get which I suggest Greddy....its a proven reputable company for making quality products unlike Pacesetter...for 35 bucks...I suggest Thermal Wrap....I put it on my header and it drasctically helps keep the heat down....but word of caution if you put it on....as soon as you put it on turn your car on....the thermal wrap will smoke real bad...but it has to so it car form itself to the piping...and you will have a nice little stink for about 6 or so hours

I dn't suggest using thermal wrap. It can trap moisture between the wrap and the heaer and promote rusting.

i have a greddy header and it sounds soo nice.. problem is that i have a carbon fiber hood, and after driving around, if i pop my hood so much heat comes out of the engine.. but i really do enjoy the torque and sound the greddy header puts out...

jon

i refuse to pay 4 somthin for a greddy header, besides i like the point that ceramic keeps heat in, and greddy isnt ceramic,plus i got a carbon hood = ) but anyopne know any companies who make a good ceramic header?:-)

i had wrap on mine for about 5 months. when i took it off its was starting to rust but not too bad.
and don't the greddy's have a ceramic coating? i've always thought they did, shit they better for what i payed for them.
one more thing, what does having a CF hood have to do with headers?

You can always get the header design you like and have it ceramic coated. I plan on getting a custom downpipe made for mine and then ceramic coating the whole thing.
