Default Header Wrap - JDM ITR manifold

Anyone wrap their JDM ITR header?
kinda seems hard with the heatshield brackets.
Im asking because now that I took my AC condenser off it seems like the air will cool the header down.
Thanks

just wrap around the brackets o after you wrap it dont put the heatshield back on(the wrap will do the shields job)

When I got the header, it didn't come with the shield
And now my manifold is all exposed.
I've always figured higher exhaust temp increases velocity from velocity-not Vo.
I hear the manifold cracks when wrapped only if it isn't covered well evenly throughout the pipes, and it seems like with the brackets Im going to end up leaving parts uncovered, Im kinda scared it might weeken in those areas...
Maybe I'll pick some up at One-6
Thanks for the input.
