Pictures of my wrapped headers I am doing a few upgrades this weekend one of them being headers, obviously 
I still have to spray them with the silicone paint, but the wrap is still a bit damp. Me and buddy did this last night, safety wired all of it. The clamps included in the kit do not do **** to hold the wrap at all.
Let me know what you think

I have wrapped every set of headers that I hav installed an I am unsure if it helps but it cant hurt. I have one big thing to say besides beautiful wrap work and that is be prepared for the stink. wrapped hears smell really bad for the firs 100 or so miles or 1st week

Man, I hope the stink goes away on the 300 mile road trip I am taking after the install. Can you smell them even with the windows up? I am hoping for reduced underhood temps, better scavenging and maybe a little sound deadening, plus I think it looks bad ***, everyone has coated or plain stainless headers nowadays.

Thanks fellas, they do not look near that nice anymore since I just sprayed them with the silicone paint, but oh well at least you cannot tell which side got wrapped first anymore LOL

unfortunatly yes you will smell it inside the car with the windows up but hey they look wicked sound wicked and every hp counts why not shoot for the moon and try and pull every hp out you can
depending on the area and what you personally like it varries. myself I fish, hunt ,drink ,screw, drag race ,bullshit with my buddies, and 4wheel everyonce in a while. However if you like the club scene there is plenty if you like concerts there are tons of them. The only bad thing here just like anywhere is you gotta have money to play otherwise you go fishing lol.
you're thinking of intake air temps.
header wrap keeps the underhood temps down, not the temp of the header themselves. they actually keep heat IN, which is what helps increase the efficiency of the header.
