Arrow high temperature convoluted tubing/split loom.

Anyone have any links to high temperature convoluted tubing/split loom.

I have looked around and havnt found anything to my liking.

What have you guys used and are happy with?

I need it for a wire very close to the turbo >1 foot from the turbo, standard stuff is worthless in this area.

How about the Heat-Reflective tubing they have on McMaster Carr? I've never used it but was just browsing the site:

Why are you running wiring that close to the hot turbo side?
Why not ceramic coat or use those thermal blankets for the turbo?

The split loom will still melt.
They are only good for like 200F...300F?

Not the Thermo-Flex ones. They are aluminized material, similar to the exhaust wraps used. They are not split, but can be cut down the middle if you have a connector that doesn't fit.

I use Fyrejacket in my car; works wonderfully. I played with some matches around it and was suprised how well it really works.

I've been using the Thermo-Tec loom on my FD where the wiring harness crosses the DP, on the ABS wire on the passenger side, and the two heater hoses on the firewall. Still looks new after 2years and 20K mi. It cuts easily and neatly with scissors then the internal wire holds it closed when pushed back togehter.
