Yeah the Whipples in the Mustangs make crazy power. Compare the 2.9 in a coyote vs ls and the coyote wins

I used my vacuum former as a small downdraft table since the core is so thick and dense. I placed a trashbag over it to seal the vacuum former off and had the intercooler poking through. It pulled the coating straight through. There wasn't any coating on the vacuum former top so it all had to of coated the intercooler.


The coating works!!! I did simple before and after tests. Before: intercooler temp 70* / ice water temp 35*....filled with ice water and watched surface temps for 2min...58*.....After: intercooler temp 70*/ ice water temp 35*...filled with ice water and watched surface temps for 2min...45*

Boron Nitride and it's good to like 2500*F I believe. It's used as a mold release for molten metals. It also has very high thermal conductivity. It's used as welding paint and in pastes for heat sinks along with many other applications. You can spray it on a body panel and weld in a patch without fear of heat warping it. It dissipates heat and cold very readily/quickly.

I coated a piece of metal and sat it in used motor oil for a week and then sat it in acetone for a week. None of the coating came off by itself in oil or acetone but if you rubbed it then it would come off. However, if you rub it after it's cured then it comes off fairly easily as well. It's a very thin easily scratched coating but is basically non reactive/inert to chemicals.

I have Cerakote Heat Dissipating coating coming this week which is a much harder coating.
