In arts and crafts class today I went to town with a 2" x 50' roll of titanium heat wrap in my charge pipe to try and keep heat soak down. Unfortunately it was about 5' too short. Pulled it apart three times to try and make it work but it actually got shorter the more it was stretched. Go figure
I don't think this is the type of wrap you'd want to do on your chargepipes. That titanium heat wrap is great for the hotside ( keeps heat in) but for your charge pipe you'd actually want that air to escape, doing this might keep your IAT up higher than you'd like cus the hot air would be "trapped".

What you need is some of this - https://www.designengineering.com//c...r/reflect-gold

That should help with heat soak on your chargepipes since it'll "reflect" the heat away vs trapping any heat in
