Where you got your headers did you get them ceramic coated, painted or stainless steel? I heard that ceramic coated ones keep it cooler under the hood but don't feel like paying lots of $ for them. I would like to get the JBA's but I thought that all the curves would lower the performance. Is that true?

Ceramic certainly kept my other engine compartment cooler. I could rest my arm on the headers 20 minutes after the engine was off. I'd pay for ceramic again. From what I've read on the headers surveys on this site, it's a hit or miss thing on performance.
