Wrapping a PPP sport cat, should i do it?
Hi guys,
I've just taken delivery of sports cat off a ppp system. When I was looking on ebay I found some that had jackets around the cat, while others (like mine) didn't.
Should I wrap the cat to keep the temps up or will I end up damaging something? Also the second decat pipe has an factory fitted heatsheild on it, is it worth replacing this with wrap or am I wasting my money?
Thanks in advance, Rich.

The early PPP cats had a wrap, but the later ones didn't. I think they have ridges round the main body. If it is a later one, then it won't need wrapping.
I haven't seen any 2nd decat pipes with heatshields, so I imagine its not needed. I can see the need to shield the hot cat, but not if it is removed.
