ALL headers get hot! LOL! If you mean they increase the under-hood temperature, they can, but I've never had a problem with mine. You could always make up a heat sheild for it if you were worried about it...
Had a cool sig pic till I changed the text... sigh...

It is not a problem.
Exploding gasoline causes it.
No, it's far better to run WITH a header.  More efficient operation.
