Kooks header without coating?

Hey there.

Question for those that got Kooks headers installed.
I'm contemplating to get one of RPM's ZL1 packages which include the Kooks short system with High flow cats and midpipes.

Question is, they stated the headers are not coated. For those that have them, did you notice an increase in temperature? I'm afraid of extreme temps that may melt things specially with a IC reservoir in that general area.
RPM stated that in their experience, coated isn't needed, that these headers actually do not get as hot as the factory cast manifolds, which I get that. But, will the heat produced be dangerous around parts?

I did state to them what about road course high rpm driving and they still said, temps will be fine. Anyone have any experience with these Kooks headers uncoated?
