S2000 Forced Induction S2000 Turbocharging and S2000 supercharging, for that extra kick.

Has anyone used this kind of heat shielding before?

This is the DEI clamp on exhaust heat shield.
This is the DEI battery heat wrap.

finished product:

I have not yet seen anyone use any of these products on their s2000 for heat shielding. Or if there is a couple of you guys out there, what were your experience with these products?
Any other other inputs or opinions welcome.

Never seen it before, but that should help a lot.

Kind of looks like someone just unraveled a turbo blanket.

Lol!! I really need one too. My fusebox is that much closer to my manifold with DEI gold foil wrap on it and I also wrapped the manifold.

Local muffler shop recommended this, for only about $25 I thought ide give it a try. He said completely wrapping the down pipe is not required when running this clamp on. Lets see how it performs.

Yess give this a shot. Any way you can post a pick of the clearance between the fusebox and the manifold? I would like to compare to mine.

Wow that is close, I was able to make small brackets to bring the fusebox in more to have a bigger clearance.
the clamp on heat shield is called Dei clamp on exhaust heat shield.

This is the exact one I have on amazon : http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_no...t+heat+shield+
Amazon seems to have it for the best price ive found online.
