So im about to go out and take my blower off cuz im getting my pulley put on tomorrow but i figured while it was off i could paint it.

However I know one of the guys up here has a polished one and his temps went up.
Do i have to worry about that with the paint?

Also should i tape off the areas where its open?

 

Yes tape off the open areas!!! and why u takin the whole blower off to swap pulleys?

 

You could just leave the blower on and just mask surrounding areas of the engine bay and make sure you use some paint that can transfer heat; don't know what it is called but you can get some at Advanced auto parts or Auto Zone should have some. I think anyway

 

ceramic paint spec

 

he probably doesn't have a puller and has to get it pressed off...

moved to appearance, n00b

 

it was a performance question FOOL!

i have high temp paint dont worry. lolz

i might not take it off tonight now cuz i just drove it and i dont think i really wanna wait for it to cool down

 

really, painting a blower is a performance mod?

Is that like stickers adding HP?

 

no it doesn't add performance but i know polishing a blower hinders performance so i question if paint would do the same.

k.thx.bye.

 

no..

 

Bye?

 

I can take my vtak stickers off my car spec if you want some visual hp...

 

seriously, painting may not be the good thing to do, but if you are looking into get sponsors and going to shows; the painting and decals help. Just shows the company you are willing to promote there product. I do see a lot of Honda owners out in La Crosse that have the V-Tec badge or Type-R badge on there cars and have no modes what so ever except the fart cannon on it. Add looks if your going for show stuff. Otherwise if your the street kinda guy just add the performance and keep it original. I went with the sponsors and they require you to have the decals on both sides on the car. Oh well that is the way it goes. IMO

 

Rubberize that motha...seriously...I want to see someone do that...it totally reduces your intake temperatures... Maybe not.

 

Ive heard if you spray it with Rhinolining it will reduce temps by 57.9%

Have you guys ever heard the statistic that 99% of all statistics are made up?
