You can if you want, but at this point it's not needed.

Heat wrap serves two functions. 1. Keeping heat in the header. 2. Helps with under hood temps & keeps heat off other components.

160k is a lot & any track time is added wear & tear so yes you would be increasing the chances. Not saying that it will let go, but going to the track os a situation where you pay to play. Sometimes things break or fail, so be prepared to fix.

Don't know what to tell you then. Should be working if the cable is adjusted correctly.
