Cooper- Sepang is very technical, various corners need to be setup for the following one if you want a good time.

Black tips are from Evoms (ceramic coated). However, after about 15 laps the inside coats all came off, as you can see from the pics. (pictures taken after 5 laps)

I had the same issue with mine originally. I had them powdercoated at first but when that started coming off I had them ceramic coated. It seems to be holding up well so far especially since the material used on mine is supposedly good up to 2000 degrees. Any idea what type of ceramic coating material they used on your tips?

You should mention your coating is guaranteed for 3 years. The people (Performance Coatings in Auburn, WA) that did it, specialize in ceramic coating exhaust parts (headers, cats, pipes, tips etc.)

I have no idea what type of ceramic coating it was. Have you tried to run your car on the track?

Awesome machines

Did they time the laps or was it just a fun drive around the track? How did the Turbo manage against the others?
