I doubt it would make much difference. Kinda looks ugly IMO. That DEI gold reflective tape is good stuff - i use it on my other car on the intake manifold which is right next to a glowing hot exhaust manifold, along with extensive heat shielding.
I did put a cheap turbo beanie on my nav - didnt really need it for heat protection at all - possibly placebo effect but i could swear the turbo is more responsive with it on - theoretically keeps the heat energy in and possibly tightens up the tolerances on the t-housing through thermal expansion.
 
Hi. Any of u guys running any thermai wrap on your pipework for your intercooler. Just wondering as I thought it may help.
with such high airflow through the pipes, insulation makes no difference.
theres little surface aera and very little time for the air to heat up.

where it makes a difference is where there is a very high difference in heat, ie if pipes goes next to turbo or exhaust manifold.
