exhaust wrap for downpipe??
My HKS DP came in today. Do most of you put exhaust wrap on it before you put it on or do you just run it plain? The wrap is only about 15 bucks from Jegs so taht is pretty cheap if it works.
Let me know what you think.....also.. I got my DP from Dusty at www.mvpmotorsports.com he is awesome.. EXCELLENT service. it was here in like 2 days!

What's the point of wrapping a DP with insulation anyways? Anyone?

You wrap your D.P. to keep the heat in the D.P. the hotter the air the faster it moves,the faster it moves the quicker it will spool,also keeps the heat out of engine compartment,better breathing,less wear on parts under the hood,definately wrap your D.P.,not to is just being lazy.

Why I am keeping the precat
1. I'm cheap 
2. I have an efini Y-pipe and K&N filter and already hit the fuel cut at 12.5 (at wot going up hill)
3. My next mod will require an ECU upgrade. I have an auto-trans and most of the aftermarket ECU's are for manual-trans only.
