Default megasquirt loom protection

Do any of the megasquirt users use heat resistant sleeving on their looms, inparticular the cps wiring. If so what type and where from?

Just in the process of sorting the loom out on my cabrio, and need to get it on order if its advisable to use.

Cheers

Stu

I didnt, the only thing that goes near anything hot is as you've mentioned the CPS, I have had the plug melt on mine before... But my turbo was being pushed well beyond it's efficiency island and the turbine wheel soon fell apart! So not your normal setup! lol
