Make the turbo exhaust housing, up-pipes and exhaust manifolds. Everything between the motor and the hot side of the turbo. Cold side of the turbo can get some power coat or paint if you like.
it cant really get much more simpler to explain, then CERAMIC and COATING, it acts as a thermal barrier to resist heat. Putting it on the inside of stuff where exhaust gasses are helps prevent the hot gasses from soaking into the surrounding part, and pass the heat energy on to where it's supposed to be used (turbine wheel) Putting ceramic on the outside just makes stuff look pretty but in fact its acting as a thermal barrier to keep the heat IN the material.
I've wondered if the ceramic coating is actually supposed to be applied to the inside of parts. What if the coating were to peal? Wouldn't it then get fed into the engine?
you can ceramic coat the inside and outside of the up pipes and turbine housing, and downpipe, just make sure the coating can withstand that kind of diesel heat. the idea is to keep the heat INSIDE and help spool the turbine wheel. also helps prevent rust
But if it's apart, I know in the gasser world a good ceramic coating on the piston crown can make rather a large difference... I'd assume as long as it could withstand the heat the same principle applies here
Could you explain what measurable difference you know of?
My truck and my bikes are ceramic coated btw I just never could tell any difference.
