Hi,im struggling keeping the heat down in the engine bay with these turbo's,standard heat sheilds dont fit as these turbo's are bigger.Ive already removed the weather strip at the bulkhead to allow heat to escape when on the move.Thinking about wrapping the turbo's,but then someone mentioned the heat transfer may crack manifolds?
Had to go heat range 7 on spark plugs as i had a hot start issue due to the immense temps.Sooooooo,heat wrap or fabricate heat sheilds?

Google Zircotec mate. They did my manifold. It's not cheap but worth it and looks so much better as well
