OMP shield

i am working on my car, and decided to take pics and share with people my experience.
i just wanna share the OMP shield that i have done...it's not that great, but it's something that i did because of the small space...

If anybody has a different type of shield FOR TURBO APPLICATION, please share..

I am also very interested in this as well - how did you 'mount' that heat shield pack securely?

On a side note - for top mount applications, it would also be benneficial to fabricate a entire heatshield which would help block the lower intake manifold as well as the OMP from the exhaust manifold and downpipe. The heat is so high in this area, it greatly affects the intake charge temperatures...

I believe Petit racing used to sell a heat shield just for this purpose, but I haven't been able to find it...


As a side note - you have some, umm, interesting use of braided lines, canisters, and coil placement

exhaust wrap doesn't do poop for that area, or in general really
