I know it is childish, but we all have it inside us.

I have De-catted my Tuscan and wrapped the manifold upto the rear silencers and here are the results:

It looks like it, THB the car was not that warm, oil temp yes, but the exhaust system no, so if it was warmer it may be different.

Don't ask me why the right is the most predominate.

Do you get any heat soak in the fuel tank area, by the passenger side silencer, where the wrapping finishes?

I have not really noticed any, but I have not taken the car for a good long run since doing it due to the bad weather. It has too be hotter because the wrap is moving the exhaust temp backwards down the system. I have been keeping an eye on it though.
