how well do they work in terms of keeping temps down in the engine compartment?

or how about wrapping your headers with that insulating wrap stuff?

my goal is to get the temps down in the engine compartment so that my intake air at least has a chance of not climbing to 230 degrees

The Jet-Hot coating on mine reduced under-hood temps substantially - was good for the starter too.

I thought I heard of Header companies voiding warranties if header wrap was used? Not sure though? On the other hand, the coated headers work well.

The wrap can be hard on them - know that first hand.
