I am still working on installing a 2.7 six into my car and I was thinking about wrapping the exhaust to cut down on heat transfer. I have heard that it can't hurt, that it actually keeps the exhaust gases hotter in the pipe.
What do you guys think is it a worthwhile expense or not? |

I sure don't want this car to go up in flames after all the years sitting in the garage. Can the average guy do this coating at home or is it better just to find some where that does it?? |
