good news, bad news (long)
 
Bad news first. Upon closer inspection of my ex. manifold, ex. side of the turbo, and two small oil accessories. I find that the coating was not uniform all the way and in some areas the even missed spots!! For 480 bucks and that was basically for just the exhaust pieces (the oil accessories were very small) I would expect better results especially from a company that did work on the early space shuttle programs(hmmmm....)
After calling them they agreed to pay to ship them back Fed-ex and recoat everything for free. Sounded good to me, but i waited at home from 7am to 5pm for a week!! Fed-ex never showed up!!!!!! Called them back up and they said they had some outrageous zip code so i had to give them the correct one. Sounded resonable, so after a day the picked them up. That was a month ago!! Still havent gotten my parts. Jeefus!!!Its been a total of 2 months now since i originally sent them off. I just hope that I even get them back!!
Onto the good news, now that i see how it is with jet-hot ive decided to keep on polishing all my aluminum bits-and pieces and not get them coated at all. My intake manifold is looking beautifull i must say, and im happy with my own results.
thanks,
franklin
p.s. ill throw in some pics later

Get some SimiChrome polish. I dont know if auto stores have it, but most motorcycle stores/ catalogs will have it. works wonders.

Sold 85 Turbo for 81 Turbo.
