MAPerformance Stainless Air Intake Heat Shield Rev 2
Our very own MAPerformance Intake Heat Shield is designed to keep the hot air generated by your engine away from the intake, in turn lowering intake air temps. Made of stainless steel (with optional coatings), this piece installs easily using existing mounting holes in the frame rail using the included bracket and hardware.
Ceramic Coating: Our advanced ceramic coating option helps control heat soak. The piece is coated in a thermal barrier that looks great and protect wires and hoses from heat. Please note the coating may need some extra "curing" to prevent flaking after installation. Please allow the part to heat up during normal driving or idling and then completely cool before putting it through it's paces.

Customer Reviews
Was a pretty quick install, spent about 10 minutes total. No instructions included but it's pretty simple. Remove the cowl, unbolt the one bolt, and attach the bracket. There are two holes on the frame rail where the otherside of the heat shield bolts. I didn't have the bolts but I'm assuming the stock box uses it. The COBB silicone turbo inlet I'm running does touch the shield but I'm assuming other intakes will fair better. Overall pretty happy with the shield
Great product. Fixed my idle issues. Running the stock intake tube does require some slight bending.
Everything was easy to do but the one thing that wasn’t said was you need to remove the lower intercooler bracket for you to install. If you kept the oem bracket the old air box studs would get in the way. Besides that everything was easy straight forward and more noticeable during the 70° heat. Would recommend for people with a 90° bend intake like ets, map, etc.
I bought it on a limb hoping maybe it would help with my idling issue, I knew it was a long shot (It didn’t help the idle) but I also just wanted a better heat shield as the STM intakes heat shield doesn’t really shield much heat but this one does appear that it will do a better job at shielding my filter from some heat. I had to tweak it a bit with my Vice to get it located properly so it wasn’t making contact with anything, nothing major, the supplied bracket didn’t line up with the existing bolt that from all the other pics I figured it should have gone to even before I tweaked it that thing was not even close to factory bolt, I just threw a self taping screw in and called it a day.
The part is big and it fix the idling problem i was having when the ac was one plus it looks good
