    GrimmSpeed introduces the most versatile heat shield yet! Our unit is designed to replace the OEM
    heat shield and provide a sharp clean style to your engine bay. Even the smallest changes like an
    aftermarket downpipe warrant the OEM heat shield useless without serious modification, save the hassle
    of cutting and bending the stock heat shield. We have designed our heat shield to work with virtually
    any downpipe and stock location turbo option on the market. It even works with the TXS 4” downpipe!
    What really sets ours apart though is the capability to grow with you as you upgrade your car. Our heat
    shield will work with 38mm and 44mm External Waste Gate up pipes!

    Do it once and do it right. Protect your car from heat soak and radiant heat from the turbo that can
    negatively affect the efficiency of the intercooler, intake manifold, and surrounding areas. This is
    also much safer than turbo blankets as they tend to overheat your turbo.

    Specs:
    -Durable 304 Stainless Steel Construction with HUGE oversized Stainless Steel rivets for maximum strength.
    -Comes with M6 Clear Zinc Steel Bolts
    -CNC Laser Cut from 1 solid sheet
    -Laser Etched Logo
    -FITS ALL FACTORY TURBOS for every model
    -Will Fit with almost all aftermarket downpipes, up pipes, and stock location aftermarket turbos

    If you have a stock turbo it looks like they have the holes in the stock spots. I was thinking back to when I was cutting and fitting my stock heat sheild and looks like the same mounting points..... One thing I have learned about GRIMMSPEED is that they like to make it easy for users to install their products. So they use a lot of stock mounting positions.


    Oh and they said this in the first post:
    "-FITS ALL FACTORY TURBOS for every model"

    Yes you will need the oem bracket that connects to your downpipe/turbo and the up pipe bracket to install this, with the instructions though we do give you the part numbers that you will need to go get these brackets, we also might offer them in the future as an option with the shield. We put a lot of energy into getting this right and providing the most complete solution. It does come with new hardware (3) bolts and detailed instructions.

    Also as a side note RallySportDirect bought up all of our inventory before we could barely announce it so if you want one now, you have to go through them.
