heatshields
Hi please can i ask you... i have no heatshields on my gtir turbo setup and my dipstick has been burned on a track this weekend. Do you recomend me to get gtir mani+jpipe heatshields or should i get the thermotec wrap? what is better?

thanks

you should run the heat shield on the manifold and the j-pipe to keep from melting things.

yep, heatshields ftw. I have one on the turbo as well as on the mani. I'd like to make one for the o2 housing too.

seems like you could. measure yours from where it hits the top of the dipstick tube and i'll tell you how it compares to my avenir one.

You don't want a dipstick from a DET they are different for sure, the pans are different. A DE on the other hand might be closer
