Some people asked how to wrap your exhaust components and because I needed to do it for the BRZ's Over Pipe I figured it was a good chance to show everyone! This technique will work on any exhaust manifold or Exhaust components that you need to wrap. I HIGHLY SUGGEST USING THE COATING SPRAy OR YOUR PIPES WILL CORRODE!

This video is a good foundation for those that haven't wrapped exhaust. However, titanium wraps don't need to be soaked and expanded to be applied - they can be wrapped dry. Additionally, titanium wraps require 4-5 very light coats since the silicone won't absorb as well as fiberglass. I'm stressing this again due to the fact that between every coat with titanium wraps, you must heat-cure it at 400-425 degrees Fahrenheit between 1.5-2 hours. The heat-curing process will prevent any moisture from seeping in.

"Sprayed an entire can of spray paint into my face".. That must hit dedication, I'll keep watching. DEI states that the titanium exhaust wrap is to be installed dry, as it is far more flexible than the previous fiberglass based wrap. Further, I dont know about subarus, but my exhaust gets awfully hot. Certainly hot enough to evaporate any moisture the wrap may absorb. I will say however, I do like the idea of using safety wire rather than the stainless lock ties.

Concerning the hi-temp silicone spray DEI says, "While not required for Titanium exhaust wrap, HT Silicone Coating will protect and prolong the life of the wrap. DEI recommends a minimum of three coats, *each heat cycled for curing *before* applying the next coat*. To cure, HT Silicone Coating needs to reach a temperature of 400°F for approximately 2 hours. Allow to cool before applying the next coat."

@bozyb5702 10 месяцев назад

Man that wrap is expensive yes but I personally would never do it that way cause it's almost like buying a diamond ring and taking the diamond out. With these heat wraps like this I have had no issues with getting it tight. Wrap it as tight as you can dry not in water then after the first heat cycle the wrap has a harder in it that will cause a lot of smoking when you first run it but that pretty much makes the wrap a cast to the pipe or header. There is a process to doing this so look it up if you buy this wrap. I have wrapped my headers a few times due to having to take the car apart no fault on the wrap and every time I have taken the wrap off the headers it is really tight and it holds the round shape it had being on the pipe as I said like a cast. I would try the dry method before this one. I hate to see that beautiful wrap soaked in water and then painted over that nice titanium color. Not trying to hate on this video I'm just saying there is more than one way that is effective.

@Sigrafix 2 года назад

Is that silicon spray really necessary? I mean, is water really going to get under the warap and corrode a pipe that's like 500 degrees?.. I'd think it would stay pretty dry just from the heat.. I don't know either way, I'm asking..

The wheel is cylindrical in shape, no one would prefer a square shaped tire from a cylindrical tire because the cylindrical tire already works great. Now the metal zip ties are already good stuff and for some reason, this dude chose the wires over it and made a thumbnail saying "the only way you should be wrapping your exhaust".
