I haven’t had a whole lot of luck keeping paint on the manifolds or the pipe from the manifold up to the turbo. Your color looks like mine did. They just get so hot, it seems like the paint always gets cooked. I’ve tried a few different paints, the POR stays on the best for me, but I’ve still had to recoat every year or so, which is a pain when the engine is in the car.
