   heatwrapping is only good if you buy good stuff and yes it keeps engine bay temps a bit lower. i think it looks the part aswell!

   Definatly made a difference on mine to the temps when im in traffic, and i agree with the thinking you're car might be on fire! I didnt realise it would smoke that much, smells horrible as well haha.
