Exhaust wrap

Will do Leighton

I used exhaust wrap from turbo to the cat..
Then reflective wrap on the intercooler turbo crossover pipe .. Then exhaust wrap on the intercooler outlet to the manifold..
What a difference it made ..
Car felt more responsive and sharper..

When i fit the new turbo I'm gonna wrap my exhaust manifold

I'm in the process of ordering a few gaskets to change my turbo elbow and thought i might get some wrap to do the manifold and intercooler pipe work.

Reading the post above i figured I'd get some refective wrap as well - so using the picture below and im right in thinking the bottom IC pipe horizontal to the front of the car needs the reflective wrap and the IC pipe coming off the inlet manifold would benifit from exhaust wrap ?



GTI_R_IOW - how much length of wrap roughly did you get through ?

You are correct  al .... although i cant see how to much heat will get to the inlet pipe but nothing wrong with a bit of belt and braces
