You may want to buy a laser temp probe and check temps to see if you feel things are getting a bit too hot. I would personally recommend wrap or coat

I'm just going by what was there stock. Seems like the engineers added a whole bunch of heat shielding there for a reason.

Also depends on what power you intend running. More power = more heat.

I agree. I am planning on staying NA so i'm not sure if I am going to coat it or not. I still have a while though. I'm order number 4967...

If you don't mind my asking, when did you place your order? I do not have an order number since I purchased my UEL headers through PayPal, but I am currently number 25 in line. Just trying to get a general idea of where we are at. And oh, I purchased my UEL headers on March 10th. Thanks in advance.

I doubt I'll see my headers this year. I ordered March 17th. My order number is like 5239.

Your's should be early May sometime based upon current lead times.

I ordered mine on March 6th. So i might get mine the end of this month or early May from what FT86SpeedFactory said. I am ok with that. I thought it would be June or July.

Thanks Bro. From the looks of it, you ordered your UEL headers 4-days ahead of me, which makes you that much more ahead of my 25th place. Yeah, I'm ok with getting my headers next month too...better than June or July, which is what I thought initially. Thanks again!
