I don't believe they make a 'high heat' version of split loom tubing If you think about it, you don't want to route ANY wires or tubes in a way that they would ever be close to a heat source, so you should't need a high heat product. The VQ offers many ways to route wiring to keep it away from the hot spots, which are typically only found towards the bottom of the engine (and, of course your supercharger!)

Like I told you in another post your car is hot, nicely put together. I didnt notice your door handles in the other post. Are they painted or is it a vinyl overlay to darken them out? They look good with the black wheels.

No I made it out of three inch pipe. Cost was about 90.00. The blue loom was bought from a large performance store in town. It is made for wires. I just went right over the top of the black OEM stuff.
