Yeha I think thats the next step. Going to wrap the exhaust in some ceramic heat fabric - like 1" thick , aluminium reflector ... and tie down with zip ties ....
Then place a heat shield in areas where its tight to absorb and reflect some radiant heat.
Just was suprised how "poor" the wraps were .......
