Some wrap is worse than others, but a couple of journeys with car up to temperature at most i'd expect. |

Best one is when you do a turbo change and don't drain out any coolant.
You end up with a semi-large spill of coolant that can collect in the exhaust heatshields. The thing looks like it's on fire when it's gets up to temp, bloody stinks too...... |
