Default Accord with new header, but heat issues

I just put on a new exhaust system for my 92 accord. i got a new header as well and i heat wrapped it. the thing is, my temp gauge goes up when im in town or when im accelerating after the car is warm. i didn't have this issue until i put the new exhaust on. any ideas or suggestions

check for coolant leaks, make sure your elec. fan is hooked up, stuff goes bad. it may not have anything to do with your new exhaust components.
good luck, hope its not serious.
