1 X 50' Double Thick Exhaust/Header Wrap, White

Heat Wrap, Matting & Sleeving

Exhaust/header wrap will decrease your engine bay temperature, improve cooling and add horsepower. Please read this description thoroughly for more information about this very helpful but often misused product. This exhaust/header wrap is twice as thick as our main exhaust wrap product line. It's great in case you want to rest a cold beer on your exhaust manifold after a few hot laps. (Notice: this is an exaggeration. Do not attempt. Also, don't drink and drive.) You should not use an exhaust wrap this thick unless you know exactly what you're doing, as it can over-insulate exhaust parts leading to premature failure. It's best used with thick, stainless steel exhaust parts or in non-exhaust applications. When you add horsepower to an engine, one side effect is added heat generation. Most engines are designed to operate at 180F, however the exhaust gasses that leave the engine can easily be over ten times hotter than that, and it's common for turbos, exhaust manifolds and exhausts to sit right up against the engine or oil pan! When you have something that is 2000 degrees about two inches away from something you're trying to keep at 180 degrees, it's just common sense to use some kind of insulation. As an added bonus, you get better exhaust scavenging which will add some HP by keeping the heat in the exhaust gas. Do you know how hot your engine bay is? You've got a big chunk of iron and aluminum and a couple gallons of water at 180 degrees, so that's a good starting point. Exhaust gas at up to 2000 degrees leaving the engine just exacerbates the issue. But what about all the sensitive electronics and expensive performance parts you want to keep
