ya keeps the engine bay temps down quite a bit, but i dont know about any power gains on an N/A car, maybe a turbo car cause of the temps. but if you use it make sure you wear gloves that shit will fuck you up....fucking fiberglass

Yea noone answered how it works for you, so here ya go. It keeps the heat trapped in the exhaust where it should be.
It keeps engine bay temps down, which in turn keeps motor cooler, radiator cooler, IAT charge a bit cooler.
Also helps in performance just not by seat of the pants though.
I'd do it
REMEMBER KIDS, HEAT KILLS

I've heard good stuff about it, however the down side is I hear it gets water soaked as well. 
Guess when it gets heated up it dries again, but that would eventually rot it out and you'd have to replace it again.
Anyone have any idea how much it actually traps ? Can't be THAT much can it ?
