hey guys,
I put this insulation blanket on temporarily on my intake as seen in the picture to keep it cooler since i felt the pipe get pretty hot. the pipe did feel much cooler when i had it on so i'm thinking about having the guys at my work custom make one for my intake that would cover it end to end, stopping at the filter. ofcourse, there would not be a need for duct tape anymore  . What do you guys think, would it make any difference on performance either way? I don't want the hassle if not worth it. Thanks...

hmm, dunno how much that would help performance. yeah the pipe is cooler, but it'll still be sucking in hot air from the engine bay. aftermarket intakes only add about 3-5 hp anyways. if it doesn't cost too much to make one then go for it.
