coated headers will keep your engine bay from getting as hot

One is coated?































Sorry that was too easy.
Ceramic coatings will keep heat in the pipe resulting in lower engine bay temps AND better exhaust scavenging.

Coated headers = hotter gasses = faster flow = scavenging (as mentioned). That's the best reason to get them coated.
