heat wrapping....
would there be any benefit from heat wrapping your fmic pipes...
a fellow member on midland scoobies has done so, but i havent seen it done on any other cars???i suppose any way of keeping the temps down is a good thing, but thought id ask if anyone else has done it...

It makes logical sense to leave the pipe running from turbo to FMIC unwrapped, so that it loses as much heat as possible on it's way to the IC.
Then after the charge has been cooled properly by the IC core, it would aslo make sense to have the pipe from IC to TB wrapped, so as to insulate the now "cold" charge from underbonnet temps, to prevent "reheating" it a bit.
