Heat wrap

Has anybody heat wrapped their JWT? I remember a few people talking about it, just wondering if anyone's done it.

Bought some that claim to resist 90% of radiant heat up to 2000F. Will try it out.

Well, I am assuming you're putting the wrap on for a reason.. like reducing heat..

Knowing if it reduces heat.. or not would be a result.

Haha yea, I meant to ask if there's anything specific you'd like for me to do to test the temperature. But I think I'm just going to do the hands-on-the-pipe test after freeway, driving hard, and normal driving.

I think the hand test would be great...

before: my hand burns
after: my hand doesn't burn

I was debating between using the hand test or the face test. I'm glad you guys decided on the hand.
