Message	Does wrapping them reduce any resonance from the pipes. I did a set on another Z and the resonated pretty bad compared to the stock pre-cats. The seem really raspy. I will be doing mine saturday and will wrap them if it cuts down on some noise.

Good, bad? > - Greg D. (Specialty-Z) 20:50:45 04/21/05 So is it the same impact with ceramic coating? (n/m) - Dave N 20:53:56 04/21/05 Correct, It would retain more heat and have less temp - Greg D. (Specialty-Z) 20:55:59 04/21/05 what about adding heat sheilds? - Rickytl (MA) 21:02:43 04/21/05 *smack* (n/m) - Dave N 21:05:32 04/21/05 It would depend where the heat shield was placed.... - Greg D. (Specialty-Z) 21:06:44 04/21/05 Interesting...I wonder if there is a tangible difference. - Dave N 21:11:56 04/21/05 Re: Interesting...I wonder if there is a tangible difference. - Rickytl (MA) 21:14:04 04/21/05 Re: Interesting...I wonder if there is a tangible difference. - Greg D.
