Anyone know if 5 feet in length is enough to do the job? Are they all pretty much the same or is there one product that is better than the others? (not going the ceramic coating route).

Not sure what you mean by manifold wrap. Anything that impairs heat exchange with ambient air seems like a bad idea.

I was referring to the "exhaust header down pipes" that some people replace the stock down pipes with. They are wrapped with a heat treated wrap to lower the under hood temperature.
