Heat insulation for engine wires

Heat insulation for engine wires
Do you guys think it would be a good idea to redo all my engine wires with this stuff? I have a top mount twin turbo setup on my car and it generates a lot of heat. BTW, I don't mean the spark plug wires.

I wrapped my main harness with header wrap insulation. I am a little over 100,000 miles now and did need to replace one coil harness around 60,000 because it was crunchy. I also have a button type eletric sensor that closes at 200F that is mounted high on my firewall that turns on my radiator fan if the underhood temp is over 200f, it comes on in the summer about 5 minutes after you park it and runs about a minute.
