Thermal Wraped Headers anyone??

Post by Guest »

I saw a mod that was done on a Toyota Corolla that the guy Wrapped his headers with Thermal wrap, and it gave him 5 -7 horses. Im not quite sure how it works but that it makes something about more power to push hot are out? If any one has tried this Id like to know what its done to your horsepower.

It just keeps the engine cooler... cooler engines produce more Hp!! 5 - 7 seems a bit much... i usually hear about 1 - 3, but hey, who knows... it could happen : )

you wont get burned if you accidentally touch your header if its wrapped in this, and the wrap is fire proof... and you can feel the difference on your engine bay been cooler after a hard run<P><BR><P>------------------<BR>Alberto<BR>1993 Mx-3 1.6l Se<BR>Brilliant Black!

I got some at a Race shop. So if you have one like that in your town , I'd try there. Or you can look at J.C. Whitney magazine.
