I've recently bought a full decat system and want to lag the down (and up?) pipes before I get it fitted at Powerstation.

I've been pointed in the direction of http://www.revolution.eu.com/erol.html to buy the lagging but....

- Any idea how much of the lagging I'll need for the two pipes?
- Do I need to buy anything else other than metal jubilee clips?
- How would one 'lag'?

Thanks.

 

got mine from www.proven-products.co.uk
ordered cooltek 30mx50mm + stainless ties x 10
cost was £56 12 months ago
as for fitting u want to overlap by half the width and just work ur way down from open neck to flange.

What about lagging the up pipe, is this needed?

 

www.agriemach.com
use the phone and speak to Wendy, mention the scoobynet group buy for big discounts across the whole catalogue.
This is quality wrap as well

 

That looks like the same stuff I bought off eBay yesterday.

Does 2" x 25feet sound like enough to lag a down pipe and up pipe?

 

that was 50 meters so you will have more than enough

and lag wet, you might want some rubber gloves

 

Cool, I was also told by a friend that lagging wet is better. Thanks.

 

What difference does it make when lagging it wet? Im looking into this mod in a few weeks.

Cheers peeps

 

probably better to do it damp rather than wet.

As it dries out with the heat it tightens up around the tubes and makes it stay on a lot longer. even beter if you can seal it with some heat resistant spray paint afterwards.

You definetly need gloves, and whatever you do dont do what i did and put the clothes you were wearing in with the missus's underwear as it will give her a itchy ****** for a day and she will not be happy!

 

Good i happened to look at this thread. Just went and ordered some for the headers etc from www.agriemach.com as Andy mentioned. 20% discount for mentioning snet.
