my turbine housing runs extremely close to my LIM, within 10mm, maybe less. the LIM is going to be polished to help reflect the heat away however i want to be able to stop the heat from the turbine housing and i may not be able to fit a heat shield and this is where i thought of actually ceramic coating the turbine housing, what do you think i should do?
you got some pictures of the inside of the WI nozzle placement please?
with your new turbo spec are you planning to add more boost? see how far you can go with your CDI and WI?

You live in a great country so far as proper engineering so you can draw upon one of the few suppliers who do ceramic coating for F1 quality applications. Have a look at the RedBrick Racing EVO and the coating on their headers, that is the sort of thing you need, then you can fit in a stainless heat shield to the LIM no problem
E-Mail me and I will send you the picture you want, along with some other tips.
For me, I'm always testing and developing the best
so the way I operate is I always release the old steps that have been proven and are behind where I am now, I'm always happy for other people to copy and benefit from my *old* knowledge
just I don't really share the current developments until I find something (that is better) else through continual self learning ... that is my philosophy, you are never ever too experienced or know enough/everything, and the more I keep testing and proving water injection and its superiority for internal combustion engines the more I have to share with others who want the best
*my old stuff I was doing people today copy and sell as current best practice/advice* its flattering lol Thus I don't openly disclose the Don Mega stuff, too many copy cats
