Hi all . Question on the fibre glass exhaust wrap that I put on yesterday.
Is it normal for it to smoke a lot while it beds itself in. Saw smoke comring from engine bay and shat myself.

Don't say that.
While putting it on it did pick up a bit of oil/ grease etc. maybe that's burning off
That's a big negatory buddy. Went on dry. Have I fooked it or is that to keep the fibers from flying off. Had a 30 min drive now and has stopped smoking.
You nob head!
Yeah. It's on tight and gone hard with a scorched look

Who's talking to you.
Can I ask what benefit there is to wrapping extractors on a TB45E?
I had Pacemaker extractors on mine for about 6 years with the original heatshield adapted over them and never had an issue with heat.
They still had the original blue paint on them when I sold them last year.
Just trying to keep as much heat out of the engine bay as I can. Even thinking of bonnet vents.
