My two cents worth. I have used both, individually and together on my GT4 and if there's a more heat prone enginbe bay out there i'd like to see it Smile

From my experience the wrap works better but you need a coupla layers. Problem is it heat stresses the metal and you can get a rust prob as well so you need the ceramic coating too. I used Competition Coatings who do a no nonsense coating that a lot of V8 supercar teams use. It's a two coat system and does pretty well as a insulator. Cover this with heat wrap and you get even better control of under bonnet temps and you don't have to worry about rust etc.

As mentioned earlier, if you are gonna do this them do it right
