Finally got my downpip off and my sportscat and decat on.

Just got the intercooler to go back on tomorrow and hopefully 'jobs a good en'

Does the heat shield have to go back on the turbo? I made a bit of a mess of it due to stuck bolts.

 

I have a turbo heatshied for a classic..... yours for £15 posted sir

 

It is a bugeye. I'll bear you in mind if it'll fit.

Can it be run without however? or would this be silly?

 

Most have removed the heatshield

 

mine had stuck bolts as well and have ran it without for the past 4 months with no probs

 

CHUCK, chuck it in the bin

 

I just heat wrapped the downpipe and threw the shield away.

 

same here
