Reviews around engine (5.00 of 5)

  • It really reduces the temperature levels of the piping and it really add some nice engine bay bling too
  • Recommended for people who want cooler air for their turbo vehicles or even N/A engines with high heat areas
  • Unfortunately that's the only way until they invent something that gets cooler as the engine gets hotter.

Reviews around temp (4.16 of 5)

  • Tested with infrared before and after and notice a 10 degree cooler intake temp (also logged on Cobb AP).
  • Can definitely say it helps a bit, temps are more stable and it retains some of the heat better
  • As per the heed of other peoples reviews around the internet with premature peeling of the tape, I first sprayed the item I was wrapping with 3M super 77 spray adhesive
  • It keeps the temps nice and cool in the intercooler on the turbo side
  • Absolutely gorgeous, definitely keeps my intake temps down

Reviews around heat (3.14 of 5)

  • but I hope it is deflecting enough heat from the steel divider to impact intake air temps
  • Sticks on very well, even with my heat shield slightly warped from the heat of my turbo/down pipe, the gold tape still sticks on great and keeps my valve cover from melting
  • I installed it on the intake manifold and intake piping on my car and this stuff has really helped with the heat soak that plagued my car
  • Most great heat reflecter easy to apply & not easy to get damaged
  • Perfect heat shield material for bottom of my motorcycle fuel tank.

Reviews around surface (3.00 of 5)

  • I have an A/C drain tube that sits dangerously close to my aftermarket exhaust
  • Adhesive isn't that sticky even though I've cleaned the surface where I put it
  • Does not stick well to textured surfaces like intake air boxes.
  • I didn't have any trouble with the tape sticking to anything (intercooler or AC tubing), although I cleaned all the surfaces before
  • I cleaned the surface, scuffed it up so it would stick, cleaned it again, and layed it on

Reviews around air (1.69 of 5)

  • Overall i used this with heat proof insulation foam to make a real cold air intake and made all the difference.
  • And the intake tube was just as hot as before
  • I used this material to make a true cold air intake where heat from the engine bay doesnt get into the intake
  • I bought this product to wrap my plastic air intake duct to help keep the air cooler as it passes through there
  • so I ordered this and wrapped the intake piping of my focus ST to create a REAL cold air
