Upgrade your Subaru with the TurboXS EJ Turbo Heat Shield. This heat shield is a great improvement over the OEM version. It's specifically designed for multiple Subaru models including the 2015 - 2021 STI, 2002 - 2014 WRX, 2005 - 2009 Legacy GT, 2004 - 2008 Forester XT, 2005 - 2009 Outback XT, and 2004 - 2006 Baja Turbo. Our unique design features an integrated mounting bracket, which is super useful as many WRX and STi owners discard this bracket when installing a downpipe. By using this heat shield, it effectively guides heat away from the intercooler. This lowers the overall intake temperature, allowing your engine to generate more power safely. It's crafted from 304 stainless steel, offering high corrosion resistance and a long lifespan. Key features include a mounting bracket, stainless - steel construction, stainless - steel hardware, and a brushed finish.
Using the Turbo XS Turbo Heat Shield is easy. First, make sure your Subaru engine is cool. Then, attach the heat shield to the appropriate area using the included mounting bracket and stainless - steel hardware. During installation, pay attention to the orientation of the heat shield to ensure it fits correctly. As for maintenance, it's recommended to regularly check the mounting bracket and hardware for any signs of loosening. Clean the heat shield with a mild soap and water solution to keep its brushed finish looking good. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the stainless - steel surface. Also, if you notice any significant corrosion or damage, it's a good idea to replace the heat shield to maintain its performance.
