Yes it's just heat shield tape. Really easy to apply, stuff I used was called Magmashield got it off EBay. Seems pretty decent gear. Anything to try and keep heat down!

It's a good idea to put reflective gold tape on the underside of the heatshield too:

Would something like
this
be good for wrapping the intake? Will take a look at Magmashield.

Think that would work but its not a sticky backed heatproof tape like the magmashield so might be tricky to secure to the twintake pipework.

....Glad you found some. Mine was a gift - A BIALI mate's leftovers and just enough for my needs. Dunno exactly how much advantage it delivers but every bit helps. Shame I can't see mine unless I get under my car.
