****, you might be right. Maybe I was thinking too late of a spark that causes it to glow red too since it will burn more than normal in the exhaust mani.
Can anyone confirm this, if it's caused be lean or rich conditions? I was thinking rich since leftover fuel might still be burning.</TD></TR></TABLE>
Well when my manifold, downpipe, and turbo exhaust housing all started glowing red...it was because we retarded the base timing waaaay too much.
After watching the video...holy hell that was awesome!

Umm...no...you want as much heat as possible going to the turbo...any heat lost between the time the exhaust gasses leave the head and hit the turbine wheel is bad. Heat will help spool the turbo, and exiting the turbo is where you want to let the exhaust gasses expand as fast as possible (thats why you make more power with a larger exhaust).

It could happen from being too lean or late spark (too much timing retard), some cars run fine and glow, especially on tubular manifolds

Re: (m R g S r)
fair enough bud, i didn't click that it was a turbo mani. But heat lossos in 10 inch of pipe aint gunna be much, not at 6000 rpm anyway. wrapping exhausts is more about reducing underbonnet temps (intake tamps etc) where i come from.
