HAHA I meant that what kind of heat sheilds are u guys using and where can I order one

 

Any More Advice

 

Helppppppp

 

well does your hood have any mods so cold air can go in and out when racing like mine i have a carbon fiber hood which is light and keeps it cool

 

vented hood work well, keeps my bay nice and cool. if you're feeling creative you can always do it to your stock hood.

 

What vented hoods do u recomend and some pics & where to get a good deal would be helpful THANKS

 

I have stock exhaust and turbos, and no doubt there are times I would not leave my palm resting on it. But it's not THAT hot. I can always reach down and open the latch without a problem.

If you don't have a hood liner buy one. About $120 from Malloy.

If you have a stock precat, get that out asap. If that's been removed, considering wrapping the downpipe and getting the main cat checked for clogging.

Thanks DAVE I have a Dowm pipe and a Apexi exhaust, and the heat on the hood is Burning HOT, Who is Malloy? a web site?? THANKS and yes my hood liner is GONE

 

Order the stuff from the link I provide above.

 

I dont have a garage so will water hurt anything under the hood?

 

Most of the stuff is protected. You still get water in the engine bay when driving in the rain. However, I would at least make an attempt to make sure that you don't have water landing directly onto your battery terminals and other other expose wiring connections.
