Where to buy heat wrap?
 
I need to wrap my exhaust manifold, up pipe and 3" down pipe. Where's the best place to buy it on line and how much will I need? I'm thinking about 100ft?

I'm looking for something along the lines of DEI titanium quality wise.

Thanks

20m works out to 65 feet and I think 50 feet will do a manifold from memory. So another 15 feet "should" be enough to do the up pipe and the upper section of the downpipe (where its most needed) :thumb:

Has anybody used the cheaper stuff and is it advisable. Was considering to wrap after porting. Have heard some horror stories of contaminants soaking into the wrap and when ignited (rare) there is no hope.

Mate has purchased this but I'm now dubious

Tegiwa does it pretty cheap i think,

I bought a wrap of each Magma Wrap and Tegiwa to wrap my stock headers,

When i swapped to GT Spec you couldnt tell which was expensive stuff both seamed to have hardened up to point i could flake off

I edited just after you replied with an eBay item number. The temp show's to be safe to 600°C constant use or about 1000°C intermittent but I'm just worried my car is gonna go up in flames ha ha
