I was getting curious when reading the other day about visual inspections done by cops and DMVs. Has anyone ever tried to fab up a heat shield simply for concealing their manifold and turbo, and maybe the open filter element? You know, similar to the Greddy Kit, but even more concealing.

 

Someone must have at least tossed the idea around...........

 

who would want to conseal their 600 dollar manifolds?! i have a heat shield made on my t3 exhaust housing

 

I did for my Greddy mani.

 

i have access to a tin fabrication shop......toss me some measurements and a pic and i'll get you a heat shield cheap!

To fool a cop when they pull you over for a modded exhaust, then use that fact to make you pop your hood. If you can make it look sort of stock, an adequate heat shield would cover up everything that resembles a turbo setup.

 

i'd ask for a warant. hahaha. j/k we don't have that much cop trouble here....
