    Hey All,

    Just purchased a used FullRace ProStock manifold for the '11 Speed3. It's already Ceramic Coated, what is the best way to clean the innards before taking to my installer for installation?

    Sea Foam or another method I can do? Installation won't happen until Sept. 4th

    Why do you need to clean it?

    What Easter Bunny said, why clean it? It's an exhaust manifold, there is gonna be soot build up regardless and it wont have any effect on operation.

    In that case, I won't be cleaning lol. I just wanted something to to in prep of getting it installed in 2 weeks. If the used soot won't affect anything that I'm good.
