Except metal would absorb (conduct) more heat which is a bad thing for intake temps so in this case, plastic is actually preferred.
That's why you wrap them to prevent heat soak from outside sources, plus plastics break down over time with heating and cooling.

didn’t someone post on here about wrapping the intake tube and dropping their IAT by some fairly significant number?

Interested in the install. Looks like a pain to get to the bottom clamps

If you could take some OEM vs AFE pics that would be great. Also wondering how hard the install is.
