Don't know, but my set up is standards. I think, without research, that 250-300 Celsius is about norm. Those with tweeked pumps, larger intercoolers and fiddled turbos double that. I think 700c + gets you in to melting territory.

Arc-rite do a decent looking high temp matt black paint up to 600 degrees. Comes in a spray can so that will do nicely.
Have you had it shot blasted? I think the surface prep will be even more crucial that usual.

It's a new manifold. I was just going to rub it down
No rust?
You'll need to thoroughly de-grease it.

Yeh no rust, just don't want it to go rusty. Good shout, got plenty of panel wipe i can use
I'd go for the silver 800c paint. Because it's silver
I've borrowed one years, but finally cracked and bought one of these.
