IAT decrease with Versus heat shield

[Benjilis]

Does anyone have numbers on before and after internal air temperature with the versus heat shield?

I currently have a mst CAI and on hot summer days my IAT is obviously hot but nothing drastic (170 after many pulls in 90+ degree weather)

Im wondering if the versus heat shield has numbers to back up the product or is it just a piece of decoration that has little benefit?

The real question is when will they have the 6 port version in stock. Can't even overnight parts from Japan anymore.

I bought mine from the Verus site last week and got it this past weekend. Try ordering or sending them an email ?

I have the 6 port shield. works as advertised. My IAT are running about 5 deg cooler across the board.

I will say holding more heat IN the turbo has had some interesting side effects.

They just had a bunch in probably to fill backorders. I got mine last week.

I ordered one. Guess we'll see if it actually ships soon.

A cracked manifold?

Ominous.

Higher exhaust gas temps = higher velocity = potential for more power and faster spool, especially transient response at the track.

When I ordered mine I got an email the next day basically saying "hey it might take another week before we can send, is that ok?"

Sounds like they're almost making batches to order. Didn't take long at all though.

Sorry didn't mean to be ominous or sketchy.
Am really curious if anyone else has noticed something.

I WAS (gone ecutek now) JB4, catless and the heat shield seems to hold extra heat in the turbo and at some decelerations i was getting one or two very large unintentional cracks. Still had burbles but these were very sharp and loud. Nothing else had changed except for 6 port heat shield.

Gone full ecutek now so it completely different. Hint: way too loud with blown out exhaust.


was worth mentioning is all.

The turbo is pulling in outside air. How is it holding heat unless you are sucking in heated air????
