Exhaust Lagging (heat wrap)
Where's the best place to purchase exhaust lagging from? Rough price guide and approx length required for up and down pipe would be appreciated.

I used 50metres x 50mm cooltek wrap for down pipe and had enough to almost do entire centre pipe.

Thanks for the link
What sort of price do they sell it for?, I can't seem to find it on their site.
The best price I've seen so far is £35 for 50ft by 2"

5metres of 50mm is £9
30 metres is £40, liitle too much for a downpipe though

just done mine
got it from proven products as well
after searching everywhere they were the cheapest
i done my headers,up-pipe and half of my downpipe with 30 metres
get plenty of them little steel ties though . .
they give you 10 and we used them before we got to the downpipe.
i need another 10 of them and another 10 metres to finish it off now
well worth doing

I've seen it for £35 on thermallogic.co.uk.
Is there much of a difference between different types?

best have too much than not enough. get 50 metres
wrapping has three benefits . one keeps heat in, two quietens the exhaust. three promotes pops

I definately want to do the up and down pipe, and if it adds any advantage, to do the centre section as well.

I only did centre section cos I had some left over. thought it might dampen noise level into cabin a bit. It's been on car for over 12 months and still looks like new.

Thanks for all the advice. Just need to wait for the up and down pipe to come in now.
