Hi Ron and all,
No direct experience, we only wrapped the turbo, to prevent radiating
too much heat inside the engine compartment.
Our kit manufacturer, Dyn Aero, once wrapped the 912 exhausts. They
experienced numerous pipe failures due to corrosion, so they
discontinued wrapping.
Considering that the 914 exhaust generates much more heat than normally
aspirated engines, we had the pipes ceramic coated (1200C grade). After
about 60 hours, the coating seems to hold, except some scaling on one or
two places.
FWIW

I wrapped the front stbd pipe with 1/16" x 1" ceramic (tape,no adhesive)
where it passes near the oil lines only.
