    Exhaust wrap

    Anyone on here ever wrapped their manifold & downpipe?

    How much exhaust wrap was needed and was it worth it?

    Wraped my manifold up, but not the downpipe.

    Took 1 roll of 1 inch x 50foot from Demon Tweeks. Bit of a shitter trying to get inbetween the tubes where they meet, but got there in the end. Get yourself some metal tie wraps too, or locking wire and pliers.

    Can't say it will do anything for power, but definatley improved the temps inside engine bay.

    Don't listen to anybody telling you not to wrap your manifold unless its Stainless. Had mine wrapped for nearly 4 years without a problem. Just make sure you have a good overlap and no gaps at all.
