Default header heat wrap

is this even worth to money to do? I recent bought some pacesetter lt's and was wondering if this was worth the extra dollars to do.

My experience with it was that it caused the headers to rust out. That was on a year round daily driver in the NE. If you live in the SW or only drive in nice weather it shouldn't cause any problems. I'd say your better off with a thermal coating for a DD. Also, its a cloth type material and isn't something you can easily clean if/when it gets dirty.

why yes.. keeps the heat in the headers. and helps the exhaust gas speed up so your headers perform better.. also less heat under hood.. heres mine..
