Default Are the following worth buying??? re: insulation

Hi all,

Although the engine temps rarle see a rise above halfway, I have found that the slam panel > top of the intercooler often gets hot.

Furthermore the starter dies when warm and the turbo housing gets rather toasty.

Now I was wondering whether any of you guys have used the following and whether it has been worthwhile?

  • Turbo jacket (would like to know if these are handy considering their cost)
  • starter motor insulation
  • Thermotec sticky insulation (for top of the intercooler)

Thanks in advance

Dave
