Heat soak is a horrible enemy to power and response. On the NA GM 3.6 DI V6 we see 20 rwhp, 25 rwtq plus reducing the intake manifold temp by app 40* F.

Myth Busters episode I almost went crazy when I saw it first...I was like I know this will work, we do this all the time.
On Military aircraft many of the newer designs do use a textured surface for this and stealth. Have not seen it on commercial or private aircraft yet, but NASCAR forbid teams using a textured "wrap" a few years ago as in testing they were going faster and using less fuel.
Anyway,
Here are the first results:
Did this on a bone stock F150 EB today. No tune, stock exhaust and airbox, everything as it comes.
Keep in mind this is only the prototype...the finished product with the textured pattern should add another 2 plus HP/TQ.
The off idle response improved a bit in driving test, but not as much as when the final pattern is machined in. Gains are pretty dang decent with no tune, but a good custom tune will optimize the added airflow and velocity so better yet!
Looking at app 4 weeks to release of the final version, and 2 weeks for final dyno results on the same truck.
Car version to follow.
Price is $150 plus a refundable core charge of $200 and $15 S&H. First come, first serve can pre-pay now to be on the list.
First 30 days this is an exclusive through EcoPowerParts,
Cheers!!!

Have never tried it in the turbo housing, and would not on the turbine blades as they are to thin and need the strength, but in the boosted part of the cold side I think it would work as well.

Ya I was thinking the housing of the turbos. Inlet outlet ports.
