Hi, today i fitted the kit. It sounds AWESOME
![]() Here's the Setup (UK 3S-GE), i have a heat shield on it to try to stop it sucking in hot air: ![]() Now the thing is, the heat shield stops me being able to point the cold air feed from under the car straight at the filter so it kinda just points across it: ![]() Is this a problem? ![]() -------------------- |

I say take the heat shield off. It's counter productive. Metal, especially aluminum, conducts heat really well, which means the shield will heat up just as hot as the temperature of the air in the engine bay, and the it will easily radiate the heat right out to the air surrounding and being sucked in by the intake. Just take it off and let the air feeds point directly at the filter. I guarentee it'll work better.
