How hot does intercooler piping get? I what to clear coat mine because I am polishing it and was wondering would I be ok with regular clear coat or should I try and find engine paint or other high temp paint in clear.

Duplicolor makes a clear coat with ceramic in it that's designed for engines and stuff, and handles up to 500 degrees. I've used it and it's a good product.
