20% maybe, not 80%. The other advantage is a few percent increased HP from improved exhaust scavengeing because the exhaust gasses stay hotter, hence less dense.
I think you will still get plenty of heat for the carb and cabin heat. Plenty of other companies do ceramic coating. Make sure they do both the outside and inside of the pipes. The increased heat of the exhaust gasses will eat your pipes in no time if only the outside is done. Call your local speed shop and see if there is anywhere local that does it.

Jerry and I want to coat our exhaust manifold, like the Jet Hot process. I understand that it will reduce the under-cowling temperature by 80%. If that is so, what has to be done to insure that you can get heat for cabin and carb? Are there other companies that are preferred, that do the same thing?
