Intake/Header wrap?
Hey whats up guys, anyone know where i can get Intake/Header heat wrap? If anyone ever used it, did it really make the tubing of the intake/header that much cooler, and if so did you notice a significant performance increase? Thanks

Not that that's a bad thing. Keeping the header hotter and, as a result, exhaust gases hotter does get you a performance increase as the exhaust doesn't slow down as much (cooler exhaust gas moves slower).
Downside is, i've heard a lot of people cracking their headers after wrapping them.
