On the package of all header-wraps it says something along the lines of "for racing only". This is because if you put it on a daily driver(drive through snow, rain, etc.), it will rapidly increase the corrosion on the manifold, resulting in holes within a few years. I've heard several accounts of this, but have never used the product myself. I'd go with coating it-

no worries about salt/corrosion. Does anybody have
any pluses / minuses for either one? I'm thinking the
header wrap may be the cheaper way to go. (summit
racing is only a half an hour away from me)
