Hi ,can anyone recommend a good fireproof tape as i need to wrap a connection that is near the turbo /and exhaust manifold ,looks like the connecting plug for the twin fans (cooling) as i can see that at some point it as got a bit hot and tried to melt ,previous owner not me lol thanks

 

I think that fireproof tape will just stop the tape catching fire but would not protect the plug from the heat. Go to Demon Tweeks or Motorsport tools site and look at heat reflective products and wrap it in that. Also try and move - re route - re wire the plug away if possible, surely just needs a small extension?

You could consider heat wrapping the manifold or better still Zircotec coating (pricey)

 

I've just done a fair bit of heat protecting under the bonnet as I've just changed my exhaust manifold

Heat wrapped the manifold

Heat protective sleeving

Still need to reroute the bonnet release cable, but for now it's wrapped with the sleeving stuff

 

slammed orion - that looks really good, really well done!

 

Hope it all does its job for now

 

the heat proof wrap is the best thing to be honest, it will reflect the heat away from what needs to be protected and as it's a slide on thing you can simply remove it if it's going to be moved out of harms way later

i might have had 3 layers on my clutch cable...
