[QUOTE="LA Sledboy, post: 775825, member: 53778"] [b]Pipe Coating[/b] Like someone already stated in the two stroke pipe runs off of harmonics or sound waves. If nothing else what the heat wrap or coating should do would be to allow you to have a more consistant performance from your pipe. If it can maintain a certain temperature by not losing heat as easily you should get more consistent results. I have found that in sledding where you are working with tuning clutches that can drive you crazy this is a help. Also though if it allows your pipe to operate at a temperature that it wasnt able to before you may see power gains you didnt notice before. I found this on my rotax 800. I tried everything under the sun to get my new single to perform and nothing would show me any gains over stock. I wrapped the pipe and BOOM when it was hot I was seeing 300 more rpm than I ever saw before. Clutched for it and in real world testing I improved. One more thing though that worries me about your pipe on a bike. On a sled you have a y-pipe for multiple cylinders that runs to the pipe. Some people argue not to coat the y and allow some heat loss before the pipe because too much heat could cause you to burn down. I know you can have twins or triple pipes where you wouldnt have a y-pipe and that is what a bike pipe is like. I see lots of these coated without problems so that may be a myth. Does anybody in the dirtbike world run egts. [/QUOTE]
