Gold Reflective heat film... Manifold

Has anyone tried this on there intakes at all?

Gold Heat Reflecting Film self adhesive - Full-Race.com

I've seen it on vehicles before & was curious on the results. I saw a nasty as evo at seam like 2-3 years ago decked out with this under the hood. Was thinking of trying this on the stock intake for heat & to liven the engine bay up. Worth it?

Look up SHG_Mike, but to answer your question, no its probably not worth it.

Yeah I figured on a stock manifold it prob wouldn't. But on a nice after market w/ boost i'm sure its great.

I did it on my Weapon-R intake manifold. It will help it remain colder but i didn't saw an increase in power! If i knew in the first place, i wouldn't have this thing installed on my car anyway...

Marko!
