i noticed that when i run my car and i open the hood up and feel my intake tube i have cai, its hot i was thinking bout using some header wrap so it wont get to hot and that way it will intake more colder air without getting heated up as it goes into my engine what are ur thoughts bout this? btw header wrap is bout 50 bucks at a local automotive shop....

Wrap that header too, all the way past the engine block - keeps the whole engine bay cooler = happier motor.

You turbo guys will benefit a lot from header wrap as well.
