Hi guys.

Now a question for you:

Is it wise to wrap titanium?

In the dim recesses of my mind I seem to recall that wrapping Ti is not advised as it can cause pitting.
Hopefully someone in the know will respond to confirm or deny such a thing!

Beautiful pipe !!

I heard your not supposed to wrap ti pipes. So I wrapped my first muzzy ti pipe. It never turned to dust like they said.

If cost not a bother then get it ceramic coated on inside of headers.
