WRONG!! It doesn't add 50 HP!!

Its 39 HP

I wonder if certain paints would hold heat in? I have heard of such a problem on non-auto related areas.

sweet that means i just gained 39 HP hahhahah

Use engine enamel spray paint.

Did this to mine and it's holding up great and it's relatively cheap.

So, what if I paint em red and add those stick-on fender vents, is that enough to add 50hp? lol.
What's the main difference between engine paint and caliper paint? Is there any advantages to either one?

Jae, I have used Eastwood products in the past. Spray gray is the cast iron paint. Check out the link.

And they have caliper specific paint as well.

Use engine enamel spray paint. Done hundreds of sets

+1 you can even get a spray can of custom mixed engine enamel to match your paint code. Might look trick with matching brakes.

Here is an example of what I did to a set I'm building for my ride.

engine paint shaves .10 off your 0-60 time...brake caliper paint knocks 10 feet off your 60-0 distance.
