I order new exhaust from Armitryx for mi Type R FK8, but this cant figure out mi problem with heating up motor space also I have basic air intake with is very warm. So maybe I can use products from Thermotec company, are You guys use it is it worthless.

Tackle the problem at the source : The turbo.The turbo puts out most of the heat in the engine bay so either get it coated or put on a heat shield blanket .
There's only 1 Real ceramic coating and that's Zircotec (Uk) .They coat most of the F1 exhaust and carbon parts.
They can also coat plastics and have several heat shielding products.It is rather expensive (around 300-400euro for a smal header/Downpipe)
But it is molten ceramic that gets sprayed onto the metal and never gets off unless you grind it off.
They can also coat intake manifolds and pipes to reduce heat soak.
