    heat wraps do help. lol

    Not worth it on a street car unless you have 1) serious heatsoak issues or 2) live in a climate without humidity. it traps a lot and will deteriorate the integrity of the exhaust... often rusting through, depending on age and material of the exhaust.

    ceramic coating is a better solution for a street car, even though it's more expensive. The more heat you can keep in the exhaust the less it will cool off and slow down flow to the turbo. Just like normal, heat is energy. and if you keep that energy you will make more power.


    there are much better ways(and more economical) to optomize your setup. better intercooler, porting and polishing(gasket matching or more), methanol injection, ducting work for the intake, heat shielding, airflow enhancement... a bunch of things. The most important would be your tune if you haven't already had someone tune it on a dyno... and tune for max horsepower, not just street tuning your AFRs and spark table.

    you could always swap in an sr20, however... they are catching a premium right now since its 2 weeks before race wars

    Mount an ORECK vac to your intake, its the only thing better than a turbo and supercharger on your engine. You'll get "WOWS" from everyone

    Don't do this. Otherwise you and the mad scientist will have to rip apart the block and replace the piston rings. It will fry them.
