Iva And Exhaust Wrap

[Guest Spencer Griffiths]

Just looked at the Kit car mag feature on the Zero IVA and I take it that you don't need any exhaust wrap or manifold heat protection for IVA? My long term plan is to get the manifold Cermakromed at Camcoat but with finances tight that will have to wait until a winter hibernation. I am just going to polish up the manifold for the time being.

No exhaust wrap needed for IVA

Just as well; would be criminal to cover my lovely pipes up.

Had my exhaust pipes coated black by Camcoat of Warrington, they made a really good job of them, well pleased.

how much does professional coating cost?

Just to add Spencer,

 

If you have a lambda sensor then that needs some kind of protector over it to pass exterior protusions,

Following on from Spencer and Dinger's posts, I am going for Cermakrome finish on the headers as I am none too keen on rag-wrapping (if truth be told its the metal tie wraps that hold it all in place that I don't really like)

 

As I have a Zetec, I am also fitting a Lambda sensor, so has anyone got any ideas/photos of what has got through IVA test for protrusions please?

 

Cheers

I suppose you could use a U clamp form an exhaust, I believe GBS have a bracket to lend out but dont hold me to that!, lol

It will vary depending on the amount of pipes etc, what they are made from and (more importantly) what condition they are in ( do they need de-rudting etc) but a 4 pot set of headers would be a couple of hundredd pounds. Best to contact Cam coat and have a chat with them. I've seen the results from some of my Cobra mates and I want to get my headers done when I have the dosh
