| Thermal barrier coatings may increase the temps in the exhaust manifold but it will decrease the heat on the piston crown and rings. The motor will "see" lower temps. Increasing the thermal efficiency of the motor is a good thing. You really need to change over to stand alone and get away from bandaid solutions. For the amount of power you are pushing unichip is silly.
