Intake Heat shield
 
Here is a couple of pics of the heat shield I made up for my mates 98 wrx. I think I need to speak with Polar and get some phone pic photography lessons.

Looks good .. Getting a CAI would have saved you the hassle though, and works better i reckon.

Judging by the pic could you not find one which would be compatible with your FMIC?

It cost $5 for the ally and took about 1.5 hrs to do. I also think a CAI would do a better job, but what would the cost difference be?

fabicate a fully closed box with an inlet just through the fender would be the go.
good job .

I think the top would be a goods idea but he had to go out.

I pretty much just copied and improved a shield in my car of which RMS made up. It would definately help with the engine heat in much the same way as the turbo heat shields.
