Do Not Buy Turbogarage.com's 2G Intake Heat Shield
  Its a Chincy, half assed peice of sheat metal cut with a dremal that has rigged edges, unpersice cuts, and Just ain't worth $40. VERY Unsatisfied right now. Took 4 weeks to ship, and came without the rubber slip-on for the top.

That sucks... someone made the one in my Talon from 1/2 plastic and 4 hinges.
 I took that shit out and broke it in frustration.

Just need a nice ram air hood and filter like on newer Trans Ams, then hot air would never be a problem.
 That would be some awesome custom fabrication... lol

Yeah, custom as in; get my cutting tool out an cut a fucking chunk out of my hood and a ram scoop on. That would be so Spokane, Wa. I'm suprised I havn't seen one. You just sparked an Idea. I'm going to see if my friend is upto wanting to try it on his 1g.

Re: Do Not Buy Turbogarage.com's 2G Intake Heat Shield
I built one from a 4 dollar piece of sheet metal I got from Home Depot. I used a drill, and some tin snips. Mind you it's not the prettiest thing in the world but it does indeed work and the temperatures are lowered. I used the stuff they wrap pipes in for the lip edge on the top.
They probably made one took measurements and hand make the rest. It did take me 2 hours to do but thats because there are no dimensions anywhere online and I had to install, cut some, reinstall, cut more... till it sat perfectly.
