I was looking into cleanning it up and putting on some hightemp paint to keep it in good shape. Does anyone have any recomendations on what type of paint to use, one that wont burn off. the highest temp paint I have seen is 1400f from what I've read I dont think that will cut it I would prefer not to have to bake it. thanks 1990 tsi awd- Big 16g fully ported, k&N, 2g mani, mbc@18psi, 255 pump, 3" turbo back exhaust no cat, hks turbo timer, datalogger, autometer a/f boost, unorthodox underdrive pully, big fmic, safc 2, JE 9:1 pistons, b/s removed, safc-2, 550cc's, 2g mas

So I don't think a 1400 * F paint will cut it.
