It looks like the stuff you use to wrap outdoor pipes with during winter. (I know, i know, winter? In Texas?).

Just intakes back on and once again i can say that they make a change in the power at high RPMs... i still dont see how the stock are better.. but i understand the heating problem.. ok so i left my car out and just went back to touch the pipes after 15 mins of waiting and the pipes are not hot... i guess this is a good thing

Try lowes.... but i know pep boys has it 100 percent... ask for thermal tape. they use it on downpipes and headers for lower engine bay temps.
And they stand up amazing to heat. I have had them on for awhile now and i really like them.
