hey bro i will give you good advice ......DONT GET IT ! it may be good after a while but it traps heat and moistier belive it or not and in about 6 months u will have no exhaust left too heat wrap ...seen it alot of the time when i pull cars apart with the heat wrap ....may be good but it kills your exhaust ........

i would get a special paint an insulant paint not sure what its called but it does help .....or even better theres special sh*t u can put on your undercarrige like the heat wrap but works heaps better many ppl wit rotary's yous it .....

...trust me man i did it too my mates car when i started out in the trade of performance and shit 6 months later i pulled the wrap of cause he herd leaking under it and sh*t me there was just a skeliton of the exhaust ..... man we were stunned ..so we tried too claim but they say its only for drag use or some shit .....

sh*t. I put it on already.....

should'v read this post firs.t......

but would it help if I spray the exhaust first then wrap it and then spray on the wrapped exhaust again?

the guy told me at the exhaust place to damp the wrap with bit of water and then wrap.

and this wrap is pretty expensive !!! cost me 80 bux for the wrap and the spray

The stuff from Autobarn and places like that are a cheaper alternative to REAL exhaust tape.

If you want the good stuff, then I'd suggest to visit your local Revolution Racegear supplier, they have the stuff that goes on drag, rally, sprint cars. It's a little dearer, but if you want it, then you'll pay for it.

yeh i reckon dont use the wrap in the first place .... it was a real expensive blunder for me ..... i am now using the paint n under carrage matt .... works much better ......

now come too think of it by spraying it then applying the wrap u could get pass the corosion but under the wrap it gets bloody hot and the paint will most likly peel off then just start that shitty prosses again .....

guys, i went with jet hot coatings to get my dump pipe coated in some sort of ceramic coating inside and out, handles up to about 1000 deg, and they say it retains the heat in the pipe and out the exhaust...cost about $80 plus postage, and you get a free recoat if the product does happen to fail, there number is 1800700468

sorry to dig up the old thread but... what is "the good stuff"? is DEI good stuff? and with the good stuff is corrosion still a problem?

thanks

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
