I had the same question as you few months ago... I am basically obsessed with heat management with my ctr.Titanium has low thermal conductivity, which is one reason it is well suited for inlet piping...it allows less heat to be conducted, or transferred from the hot to the cold. It seems that any other supporting activity (further insulating or heat rejection) could only further prevent heat from being transferred into the charge.
I understand it this way.
Titanium has low thermal conductivity, way lower than Aluminum, copper, iron... so it doesnt get hot or cold as how other metal is.. it is always not too cold or not too hot to touch.
Air feed in from intake doesnt stay in this pipe, it literally just pass through and has very little to no time to get affected by the titanium pipe which it simply doesnt get heat up to begin with. I guess that is the reason way we buy TIP right?
I dont have data or number to prove that.
