I Need A Heat Sheild For A TD05 ?
 
Just received one of Andy F's TD05 20G today to replace my TD04 on the newage. Dont really want to wrap the turbo, does anyone have any other ideas regarding a heat sheild alternative? Can you buy these things? Seen a COBB one in the USA but dont think it will fit my car!

Thanks

the standard one fits back on over an 05/06 an the 97-00 cars, how about fitting one of them?

here is one fitted to an 05/06

Is it an easy fit ? My car is an 03

as far as i can remember i cut the back out for the open neck downpipe an it bolted straight on!

I have the standard one on my tdo5 16, the bit that gets covered is no bigger on the 20g, so with a bit of a tweak for the actuator arm it should fit back on.....

Cheers

Just out of interest where does the sheild bolt to? Is it the turbo housing?

RON 12 January 2006 10:51 PM

the back of the turbo has a bracket which is held on by 2 of the downpipe nuts and bolts, and also the bracket that holds the turbo in place under the turbo itself.... the heatshield bolts to those...

:) Thanks, Yes it does fit, my mechanic fitted it with ease today back to my car. He may have modded it a little to suit but it looks like the oem sheild went back on ok to me with no unsightly bits hanging off. Well chuffed!!
