If it's not a competition car where every last hp counts - then no.
escossie - do you mean how does coating raise the EGT's? If so, a ceramic coated manifold will not allow heat to be radiated out of it. The heat and energy therefore stays in the exhaust gas, and it does not drop in temperature.
Simon - kind of confirms common sense - but nice to see u have tested it properly
