my down pipe is heat wrapted, and when i fit my headers, they will be to.

but is it worth heat wraping the rest of the system up to the back box?

thanks

I wouldn't have thought so to be honest, you are mostly wrapping to keep heat out of the engine bay and in the exhaust but as a side effect it speeds up the gasses in the exhaust as a result, which makes for better flow!

Could ceramic coat the complete system.......

am trying to justfy the cost of heat wrap lol

ceramic is the way to go if you want to do it right though

IMHO anything after the downpipe would be a waste of money and make very little if any difference

Wrapping keeps the hot bits hot...... and the cold bits cold by keeping the heat within the pipework and not in the engine bay,this also has the affect of speeding up the gas flow to some degree,which also helps filling the cylinder with valve overlap dragging the old exhaust gas out and the new fresh charge in..... but velocity reduces enough by the end of the downpipe not to warrent wrapping the whole system.

AFAIK.........lol
