MAINTENANCE & CAREALUMINIZED EXHAUST SYSTEMS Helpful hint to extend the life of your TTI Performance Exhaust System…
Exhaust system corrosion will occur if
moisture (condensation) is not cleared out of the exhaust system. Make
sure that the vehicle is driven at least 20 to 30 minutes when ever the
car is started to completely dry out all liquid / acid that is created
by the combustion process in the engine. Failure to do so will cause
pre-mature rotting of the exhaust from the inside out. HEADERS TTI strives to offer the highest quality header coatings available on the market today. However, high performance coatings do require care and maintenance. The following tips are suggested to insure years of service of your Nickel-Chrome / Ceramic-Coated / Polished Ceramic Coated & Stainless Steel Headers.
WARNING: First Engine Runs - Header coating damage usually occurs during the first engine run when the exhaust temperatures exceed 1200°F. Excess exhaust temperatures are normally caused by excessively lean or excessively rich air/fuel mixtures and/or incorrect ignition timing. For this reason we strongly suggest that you use an old set of headers or a set of cast iron manifolds for your first engine run / cam break-in. This will insure that you will not damage the coating or void the warranty of your new TTI ceramic-coated headers.
After Header Installation and Before Engine Run - Remove grease and/or skin oils from the header tube surface. Stains & fingerprints will show when header gets hot.
When storing your car for an extended period of time, some precautions must be taken. Park the car over a large sheet of plastic or tarp. This will protect your car and headers from moisture seeping up through the floor. Wipe down and dry the headers thoroughly. Then coat the headers with WD-40 or an equivalent where the tubes are welded to the header flanges and where the tubes come in close proximity to each other (especially where the four tubes enter into the collector). These areas are prone to rusting, as the coating is unable to get between the tubes in the unexposed areas of the header. If rust occurs, it will travel into and under the coating and create a stain. When you are ready to start the car after storage, wash the WD-40 off by following the cleaning procedures.
Cleaning: Road grime / Oil / Grease / Surface deposits (surface rust) from water or other liquids
Polish to Revitalize Coating
For More Aggressive Cleaning: Stains / Baked-on Oils or Fluids / Melted-on Microfiber Towels or Plastic Grocery Bags (Yes, this happens a lot)
