stang Donating Members 1,353 Member For: 21y 7d Location: Melbourne Posted 19/04/05 08:52 AM Share Posted 19/04/05 08:52 AM Question about the heatshield, Not trying to be a smart arse but wouldn`t that also hold the heat in that the turbo generates? please respond nicely as I can see how this could be misinterpreted.

WHile it does hold some heat, it's mainly around the manifold and heat (or more correctly hot discharge gases) aids spool time. The turbo is mounted down low (ie like factory), and I'm not sure if the shield extends down over the turbine housing.CheersRobin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
