Seems like a pattern	OEM cast will crack eventually no matter what. wrap it and lower your under hood temps. that is more important for the safety of your engine than a slightly cracked manifold

Ya definetly lowering temprature is my main concern, there's so much important stuff heating up in there. The catalytic is also somthing Im concerned about. It might burn it quicker.
