the wrap does drop engine temp a lil, but it does speed up rusting on some types and brands of headers. I got my 5Ziegen header and took the wrap off due to the lil spots it left on the metal. Now it looks like a bronze/blued lizard skin. I will try and get some pix of how they look now.

8urcivic used heat wrap on his JDM itr header with no problems.
Heat wrap is a good idea if you have a track car, not so much of a daily driver IMO unless you use hella power
