Ceramic coating is actually functional to dissipate heat, and it is more durable. PC is just for looks and twice as heavy, hold heat in!

? I know that ceramic coating headers/exhaust components is often done (my last z had the FI lths coated) for performance but my understanding is that the ceramic coating keeps the heat in the pipes. Wouldn't you want the opposite effect for the intake piping-keep heat out?
Also wouldn't the air be traveling so fast as to make insulating the intake piping unnecessary?
