what did you use to spray the IC black? Doesn't that lower the colling efficency of it? and do you have any color pics of the IC?

i used regular paint, i was told that it will lower its efficiency slightly but im only boosting about 5psi right now, and id rather lose some power than have a theif see my ---- and take it, i talked to some peeps on h-t 1 guy said that he monitored his iat temps via his hondata and didnt see any diffrences before and after the paint, etc...

if your really concerned about the cooling aspect you can pay to have it annodized but thats pretty expensive!

heres the same pic as above in color
