For the Exhaust wrap to help it has to be on the Exhaust Manifold.
The makes special material to wrap the Manifold.
It is supposed to keep the exhaust gasses from cooling and hotter so the Turbo turns faster.
Another use for the Exhaust Pipe Wrap is to insulate the Manifold and Exhaust Pipes so that nothing around it gets heated up or burned. Often found in Marine use (Boats and Ships).
Back in the 1970s and 80s the claim was that if you could get rid of 400 pounds of Vehicle weight you chould save 1 mile per gallon.
