Heat wrap would hold the heat inside your down pipe, now you have no protection. heat goes where?? up up and in to your intercooler. heat soaking it. top mounts are junk. then,now,and forever. IMO putting your stock shield back on it a deff. i dont think it will fit with a bellmouth d/p but you can try it

You used "flat black paint" to seal the wrap? I'm not too sure that's a good idea. Here you go: http://www.thermotec.com/products/full/12001/12001.html
I would highly suggest trimming up the turbo heat to fit over your aftermarket downpipe. Here is a thread with some general instructions on trimming:

You dont need to seal the wrap with anything, its allready that coating on the wrap. I used 1200% header paint, for the main reason that the wrap is white. and when it gets broken in it will turn brown,yellow,orange in the hott spots. Its just for looks you dont need to do it for anyreason other that its pritty

cool it makes a therno sleve that would be perfect and fit the intercooler pipes like a glove. the down side is it looks to be 25.00 for a 2 1/2 foot piece
