To each his own, but it's a waste of time and money, unless you plan on sitting in traffic for a few hours but even then who cares b/c the temps will drop once you start moving. If you think you will pick up a couple ponies by doing this your wrong. Yes it does drop temps. but nothing significant.

I understand that but at 55mph do you really think the temperatures on the intakes are so hot that it makes the air instantly the same temperature? NO GL if he wants to wrap it I suggest he doesn't and just make sure you got a good oil cooler.

And yes, I would bet at 55mph the temps do increase dramatically if the pipes are at a higher temp. I am not saying the pipe temp will equal the air temp, but instead of having close to ambient temps your intake temps might be higher than they should be.
