Cobra4B Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Posted this up - viewtopic.php?f=37&t=35588 What's the deal here? C5s need the h-pipe wrapped to prevent trans temp issues on track and keep the tunnel cooler inside so you don't burn yourself on it.

drivinhardz06 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 maybe the WHOLE pipe or something, but just the area around the trans (way in the rear) I can't imagine anybody making a fuss. I know some guys run it, and running against me, I'd never make a fuss about it. there is no way that is ever going to show up on a dyno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra4B Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 Exactly.... I'd never make a fuss about it either, but I do want to be legal. I'd forgo wrapping the whole thing and just wrap from the rear spring mount back if I can.... I can put heat shielding on the underside of the tunnel plate for the rest.... but that crap is expensive.... we spent like $250 on it to put on the driver's side floor pan of the panoz (underside). At VIR last summer it was so hot that I kept having to pick my heels up off the floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I would never consider header wrap a "mod". I wrapped my pipes near the tranmission, but did a crappy job so most of it has came off since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

National Staff Greg G. Posted June 30, 2010 National Staff Share Posted June 30, 2010 I've emailed the national TT director to get a final answer on this. Where's Greg on this topic? Here I am viewtopic.php?f=2&t=35643 BTW, Mark was correct. And, this does not mean that you can wrap your intake piping without taking points.
