What time would you want to go? I was thinking. It doesn't make sense to meet in Schaumburg if it is in St. Charles.

Anyone want to meet up for breakfast in the AM somewhere around St. Charles?

This is a killer show and 10x's better then the show in Schaumburg

Yeah were going to leave early. We will leave our house at 8am. Going to meet at the IHOP in St. Charles at 9:30am. We will eat breakfast then go so we can get in the expo around 10am.

Me and my wife Michelle went to the show but didn't arrive until about 2 pm on Saturday.
Got some good ideas too.
I like the idea of header rap but dont know too much about durability.
I would like to wrap my headers just for show reasons.
Talked with the Amsoil salesman and showed me the pros and cons of me using Royal Purple.
Of course he highly recommends Amsoil.
Even Michelle found some quick detail stuff for her Pontiac G8.
I wasn't too happy I had to pay for a walk around advertisement, but after seeing a show girl in stellettos, it was all good!!!!!
Don't tell Michelle!!!! :headbob:
Here's a few pics we took......

Header wrap has been around and used for years and years, very durable. You don't see it used too much on street driven cars unless they are beasts usually though. Alot more so on the old school muscle cars then I've seen on newer cars.

Seriously, though, header manufacturers sometimes viod warantees if headerwrap is used at least they used to.

There has been a lot of talk about it saying is retains moisture. You see it more on old cars because back then they didn't have jet hot coating

Yea I was thinking it probably had something to do with better technology now adays where it's not as beneficial.

Not worth it for manifolds I would think, buy headers
