Heat Shields

Anyone fitted a heat shield under the I/C ?

Or are they only good for re-entry !!! :smiley:

Stand by for smutty comments :sick:

Mate I did a heat shield way before RLS, in fact it was not long after I posted my design on Lotus Talk that they suddenly came up with something very similar :wink:

Took some finding

TA Boothy - I’m all forged up now :smiley:
did you coat in gold and keep it on ?

Update required please :wink:

Yup , bought the RLS on with gold foil on the underside also applied heat shield tape to underside of I/C. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/Motorsport/Car_Preparation/Heat_Shielding_Protection/CoolIt_Thermo_Shield_Tape/1471/2053

It’s covered in gold on the underside but as yet I still need to re fit it. I did the bottom of the ic too. After the dyno I will be re fitting although I do think that alot of the heat soke comes from the induction heat when there is no cooling air passing over the ic.

I had one 3 years ago made by John from JSRacing works a treat even under my charge cooler

John is a man of many talents. It’s trying to get him to shout about them that is the hard part
