No, not worth it, nor is it needed. I have headerwrap on mine, and even that is overkill! (thought would help my vibrations)

I'd wrap it, keeps the heat in and causes a scavaging effect(in theory at least). I'm planning on wrapping my IC cold side pipes going to the intake, should make a difference (all the new TD trucks currently do) as Ford states that it keeps the temps consistent once the air leaves the IC.

Get it at a local speed-shop, its called Header wrap. It keeps the heat in the pipe, and out of your engine bay! Dont want to suck in HOTTER air than you have to.

Is this stuff for off road use only out in Cali? I guess my side-pipe would make officer leroy upset also.
