harvey smith is the man you need to speak to about this stuff, his link is at the top of the page

 

As above, goto Harveys website and send him an email, he's very quick at replying.

 

DEI heat wrap is among the best but is pretty expensive in the UK. I orderd mine fromthe states through the seller below. Order the spray coating which is very good at coating it and helping to eliminate contamination of the wrap when in use and the associated smells.

eBay Store ? Cosmetic n More Web Retail Outlet: Search results for dei.

hope this helps

 

many many thanks for help

2 inch by what length to do a dpipe??

thanks

Just about to do this also so any info would be great.

 

Here you go...
HEAT WRAP EXHAUST,MANIFOLD,HEADER,TURBO,24'X50MM WIDE on eBay, also Exhaust Components, Performance Tuning Parts, Car Tuning Styling, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 07-Jan-09 23:09:43 GMT)

This is sold by a relative of somebody on SN.
I used this to wrap a catted D/P and it did the job just right.

 

Thats great just need to get some steel twine now? Did you spray the wrap afterwards?

 

I used some aluminium wire to hold my wrap on. You can get stainless cable ties on ebay that will do the job.
I didn't spray or wet my wrap. I don't know if I should have done, and I have heard of peeps that do apply it wet. It doesn't seem to have made any difference and has done about 2k miles now.

 

might sound a bit silly but what benifits do you get from this and can it cause any damage ect

 

As far as I'm aware there are two main benefits.
1) Keep the exhaust gases hotter and they become less dense and flow faster
2) Keep the heat in the exhaust system and out of the engine bay.

I'm not sure that it presents any hazards, but somebody else here might have more to say.
