heat wrap exhaust

I am getting ready to put MBRP turbo back 4 inch exhaust on my 02 ps. I was thinking of putting header wrap on my down pipe to cut down on the amount of heat put out under the hood, then I thought how much better it would be to ask all the smart people here what they thought of the idea.

you could have it ceramic coated. i've looked into a company called Jet-Hot. They have a coating that can withstand temps up to 2000 degrees.

I've wondered about the wrap on the down pipe and the wrap for the turbo itself. On the turbo it is supposed to increase the efficiency. True?

c'mon now, somebody had to buy one of those turbo or exhaust wrap kits so there should be a real review on them somewhere

You might try asking in the Diesel Competition forum.
