Muffler cloth tape on the headers

thanks, i used 2"x50' and i had about 15' left over
you do need to be careful not to overwrap the header... you can get too much insulation and it will trash the pipes pretty quickly... The metal becomes brittle and will split and crack (turbo head pipes are really a problem)
sure glad the TiForce has separate head pipes....

nice work i'll post pics of mine when i quite being so lazy and actually go do it
I found the 1" went around the bends nicely...didnt think the 2" would be as neat, I was wrong, looks great
definitely didnt get the real estate coverage you got... 15 ft left over.. wow... I did the recommended 1/4" over lap and had just enough at 12 1/2 " lengths
Ok, I finally got around to finishing this up. Just a tip. Wrap on tube as I have shown starting at the bottom, then use a longer length of wrap to wrap the outer tube overlapping the beginning, but starting further back. This way you need less clamps. I also started at the bottom so that the overlaps were wouldn't hold water, if that makes sense. You don't need much water, just string the wrap through a bucket like you're doing paper mache.
I used 2" wide tape and the inner pipes used 11 feet, the outer used 12 feet. Next time I would buy a 50 foot roll, and cut two 11 foot and two 13 foot pieces.
