I installed this a while back and have seen a lot of discussion of its value. I used an infrared pyrometer and measure the temps on the hood scoop and on the oem heat sheild before and after installing the Way wrap. I would go for a vigorous drive and then record the temps every 15 minutes for 2 hours after. I saw a 25 degree drop in the peak temp at the hood scoop and a 20 degree drop of the peak temp at the heat shield. It is also interesting to note that the peak temps at the hood scoop occurred at different times. With the heat wrap the peak temp occurred 15 minutes after shut off, without it the peak temp was 25 degrees higher and occurred 15 minutes later.

I work on large industrial diesel engines, they all have an insulating blanket (lagging) on the hot side of the turbocharger, for improved efficiency. Expect some smoke when the turbo gets up to temperature, lagging always smokes when new.
The installation is pretty straight forward, but the clearance between the factory turbo shroud and the radiator is pretty tight. The shroud is easily removed, but have someone around with small hands, when you are ready to put it back together, those front bolts are a bear to get started!
