WTB - MBRP Turbo Heat Shield
« on: June 15, 2010, 01:54:19 PM »
  I'm looking for an MBRP Turbo Heat Shield. Contacted MBRP and they are a discontinued item and they don't have any sitting in stock.

Thanks,

DDM has something similar but I don't think it is advertised on their website

DDM has a blanket that they're are selling.  You don't want the MBRP shield anyway, I bought one for my son a while back and it has since cracked across the lettering.

Go with a nob-metallic wrap. I did 2" wide Thermotec wrapped the exhaust manifold through the down pipe to the cat. It made a noticeable improvement in spool up as your keeping that heat inside and not letting metal sheild  dispate it.

DDM has a blanket that will be available soon. They had some at the mod meet but there was a mistake in production so they have to be re-made. I am meant to get one as soon as it's done since I already paid for it at the Mod Meet :)

VA_Sky has their prototype on his car.

I have been running the MBRP shield on my car with no problems (as well as their intercooler pipes)....I have gotten many compliments concerning it/them, and have plugged MBRP in the past. The fact they have quit making it is just a sad reminder we all love an "orphan car" and some of the vendors have deemed it unprofitable to continue making parts for our cars.

My brain isn't working and I can't remember the coding to have text displayed instead of the link.

I have the url of the jeep we were talking about.  I wanted to be all fancy and do the googlelly bit for you, but can't get it to work.  He says he hasn't updated it for a while, but did get the final coat of paint on the tub.  Here is the plain ol' link  http://www.supermotors.net/users/48cj2a

Sad thing is I know it is simple to do, but for the life of me I can't think.

Sorry Kenny, so if I do this Click on the magic Elff it should tell you all about the other life you lead?


I couldn't remember to put it inside the brackets.  Okay Kenny back to turbo heat shields.
