INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Exhaust Wrap
1. Wear safety glasses, gloves, and dust mask.
2. Wearing a long sleeve shirt is also recommended.
3. Keep in mind; wrapping headers and exhaust pipes
requires patience. Going slow and taking your time
will help to make the wrap as tight as possible and
that will hold the wrap on the pipe better and retain
the most heat in the system.
4. Optional: Soak exhaust wrap in bucket of water
(Figure 1). Soaking exhaust wrap can make installation
easier and also reduce the amount of fibers.
5. If you wish to unroll and pre cut lengths of exhaust
wrap use the table below as a guide.
6. It is important to start on side closest to exhaust
port (closest to engine), wrapping down the system
towards the exhaust tip.
7. Make an initial wrap around the pipe and secure end
with stainless tie (included) (Figure 4) or hose clamp.
8. After securing end, continue to wrap around pipe,
using 50% overlap with each pass (Figure 2) and
keeping tension on the exhaust wrap.
9. Every 2 to 3 coils use your hands to tighten the wrap.
If you soaked wrap, you’ll see water dripping out.
Getting the water out is not the purpose for this,
tightening the wrap is.
10. If your primary tubes become so close together you
cannot wrap them individually, wrap both pipes as
one while using the same 50% overlap.
11. If possible, when wrapping the collector, try to overlap
wrapped primary tubes with same 50% overlap
when wrapping collector (Figure 3).
12. Clean up and go have fun!
PLEASE NOTE: Your exhaust wrap will smoke after installation,
it will eventually stop. Smoke is a normal by product of the
curing process; your wrap will not burst into flames.
