then again... why is there a need for heat shield? if we're talking about the same thing.

to shield the heat from radiator, steering pump, etc.. kind of like a heat reflector.

noticeable increase in the rate of heat lost with heat shield on.
eg. when moving, water temp drop from 82C to 73C is faster with heat shield on.

hmm.. i was once told by a mech/garage owner that it's healthier to remove..?
Saying it helps to dispense the heat from the extractors faster. plus the area looks "better"

This heat reflector thingy makes more sense i think...(i'll go put mine back now..lol)


thanx!
