There are a couple of myths about wrapping headers, there’s some bad advice out there, too.
At the end of the day, they just look Bad-Ass.

- As for bent valves due to heat; the wraps can help to insulate the pipes, keeping the exhaust gases hotter so that they leave the exhaust system and evacuate the head quicker. This prevents back pressure and heat build-up around the valves and other head components. Actually cooling the engine and allowing it to function more efficiently. They can also cut down on radiant heat around the fins on air-cooled machines.
- As far as rotting the pipes; if you take care to remove and treat any rust beforehand and then seal them properly with Extreme High Heat Header paint, this shouldn’t be an issue either.
- Splitting the pipes; if you use a dry wrap, wrap them properly and your pipes actually still consist of solid steel or Titanium, (although why some lunatic would want to wrap Titanium is beyond me) then this shouldn’t be an issue. However, all things are possible, and you probably don’t know the condition of the metal inside the pipes.
- All of that being said; the use of wraps may void your warranty, you have been told.
