I have my new turbo sitting in the shop and I plan to start the installation soon. It's all fresh and clean right now so the question is:

Has anyone tried painting the iron bits with, say, header paint? I realize I could send it out for ceramic coating or some such but I really don't want to take it all apart and send it away (no one does that here in town to the best of my knowledge). If I could mask it off, wipe it down, and spray can it I'd go for it but maybe it's just as well to let it rust a bit as they do.

Anyhow, has anyone tried this?
