I am of the mindset that I'm not going to feel a whole lot until the engine is good and hot, and then at that point the car should feel like it has the same eagerness as it does on a cool day instead of getting more sluggish..

I wouldn't think it would take 100 miles of driving to feel the changes...but I guess I could be wrong.

A lot of the testing was done with the car heat soaked or fully hot, and thats where it showed the true potential of this insulator...thus I think this is just another big step at keeping the car running to its true potential instead of suffering from heat loss. I see this helping a lot on warm days and at the track when guys are waiting in line to hit the strip.

Does any of that make sense? lol
