Turbo Heat Shields

Turbo Heat Shields
I'm strongly considering leaving the heat shields off when I install my new turbos. They are in pretty bad shape. They are rusted and the inner layers are actually starting to crumble and fall out. My 7 is not my daily-driver (weekend, fair-weather only) so would it be an issue to just leave them off?

I know some people who run without them (and I won't be putting mine back on). You might experience some extra under-hood temps without them but it won't really cause any harm. The main issue will be anything around it since there will be nothing to help block the heat generated by the turbos.

Mazda put them on the car for a reason
If they weren't needed, Mazda wouldn't have installed them
