A friend of mine says that you must be careful when using header wrap
because it can cause the downpipe to crack. He says that the wrap can cause
the downpipe to become as hot as the turbo. Be careful guys; it happened to
him.

I haven't read Corky Bell's book, so please explain to me (cliff's notes
version if you'd please) how wrapping the downpipe can reduce lag. I ask
this since I recently removed the stock "heat shield" from my downpipe, as
it had gotten corroded and noisy.

I used header wrap on my stock downpipe with great results. Reduced lag, a
little horsepower too. Well worth it. I plan to use some on my stromung
soon.
