Default Lagging/heat proofing for intercooling pipe - Where can I get some?

Hello All

Have a HKS FMIC and I want to lag all the hoses in engine bay to stop heat soak.

Was wondering whats the best way to go about this and what to use?

I was thinking of some sort of lagging tape then cover that with reflective stuff on top..

What have all you used and where did you get it from, did it make much diffo to your intake temps?

Cheers

Rob

Hi there

Not sure where in the country you are based, so cant really give you any advice as to shops locally to you.

I got mine from RPM Motorsport in Ware (Herts), they also do mail order.
Im sure that Demon Tweaks would also list it too.

Hi there

You can either try :-

www.demon-tweeks.co.uk or www.rpmmotorsport.co.uk

Both of these companies do mail order.

How much of the stuff are you looking for as I think I still have half a roll kicking around somewhere.

Cheers
