Heat wrapped...

I wanted to see if any others here have put any type of heat wrap on their exhaust system. I just installed "Heat Wrap" by Heat Shield Products. I noticed right away that the temp around the pipe was reduced. Of course I still can't ride my quad so I can't get a good test in yet.

Also, for those that have used, was there any performance gain. I can't imagine it would be seat of the pants gain, but they do claim an increase. I installed this for the temp control reasons only but any other gains would surely be welcomed. :laughing7:

Re: HEAT WRAPPED...

It will help drastically to control heat. It is a great add for the poor heat shield system of the Grizzly 660 models. The down site is that it will drastically accelerate the corrosion process of the header pipe if you ever get it muddy.

It does add some performance benefits by insulating the exhaust head pipe and allowing the hot exhaust gases to flow faster and more efficiently. Basically i is a scavenging effect.

I'd say if your aren't going in to be doing any water crossings or mud then try it. I had considered it but it would require a lot of effort keeping it maintained all of the time.
