How to install Inferno Wrap™, Exhaust Wrap, Lava Wrap™ and HP Color Exhaust Wrap™.
- Wear safety glasses, gloves, and dust mask.
- Wearing a long sleeve shirt is also recommended.
- Keep in mind; wrapping headers and exhaust pipes requires patience. Going slow and taking your time will help to make the wrap as tight as possible and that will hold the wrap on the pipe better and retain the most heat in the system.
- Optional: Soak in bucket of water or spray exhaust wrap with water (Figure 1). Soaking and spraying exhaust wrap can make installation easier and also reduce the amount of fibers. It is not recommended to soak HP Color Wrap.
- If you wish to unroll and pre cut lengths of exhaust wrap use the Exhaust Wrap calculator tool to the right as a guide.
- It is important to start on side closest to exhaust port (closest to engine), wrapping down the system towards the exhaust tip.
- Make an initial wrap around the pipe and secure end with Thermal-Tie™ (Figure 4) or hose clamp.
- After securing end, continue to wrap around pipe, using ¼” overlap with each pass (Figure 2) and keeping tension on the exhaust wrap.
- Every 2 to 3 coils use your hands to tighten the wrap. If you soaked wrap, you'll see water dripping out. Getting the water out is not the purpose for this, tightening the wrap is.
- If your primary tubes become so close together you cannot wrap them individually, wrap both pipes as one while using the same ¼” overlap.
- If possible, when wrapping the collector, try to overlap wrapped primary tubes with same ¼” overlap when wrapping collector (Figure 3).
- Clean up and go have fun!
PLEASE NOTE: Your exhaust wrap will smoke after installation, it will eventually stop. Smoke is a normal by product of the curing process; your wrap will not burst into flames. |
