Heat radiating from PCD and/or HFPC , any damage or issues in the engine bay?

Just curious, because I've noticed PCD/HFPCs don't have mounting holes to utilize stock heat shields. I've seen people ask similar questions to other threads but no answers.


I am trying to decide if it is necessary to wrap the HFPC prior to installation.


Is there any heat related damages from PCD/HFPCs, because they don't have heat shield?
(eg : when ran hard - such as track, when hot - ambient temp over 100F)




I'm having wet dreams about HFPC exhaust note these days...............

None here. They make ceramic coated ones now that greatly reduce heat.
