Have bosch wideband sensor, doesnt it resist heat as good as the oxygen sensor? Yea the manifold isnt as wekk done but would it make a difference?

Just curious, what is the point of wrapping and sealing and painting? Is there some inherent problem with the exhaust? Scott

thE heat wrapper is designed to keep the temperature within the manifold or downpipe at a constant level of heat, because is less dense it moves faster and the more air you got out the more air you could get in. It also helps keep the engine bay cooler by restricting the heat to escape.

Yeah the better you wrap it the better the wrap will insulate and look better. I'd try to get it around each runner.

As far as the manifold is concerned i wrapped each individual pipe, twice. The only part that came loose was when i want to wrAp the 3 pipes. I tied them together by pulling out their threads. Its not best but the layering is there so the key purpose of it should be active.

bosch is the end all names when it comes to sensors. but I still wouldnt risk it. but crap give it a whirl you can get a replacement for about 30 dollars if it does fail you. probably make cx racing pay for it too. go ahead and Gp it for the forum. report back in 6 months with your findings.

luckily i have my stock suspension so it sits just right...for now
when i do my suspension i will have to mod the hangers, maybe bend then and cut them so the cat back sits closer to the frame
