DP wrap to keep from cooking my CV boot :(

Put the DEI heat shield on my Cobb DP today. Easy fitment and enough room from underneath to get it on without tearing anything apart. I like the 1/2" stand-off pretty much what I had in mind. If its all good and stays put I'll definitely put one on the track car as well this winter.

I just installed mine yesterday.

I got the 6" x 1'.

I have a lot less clearance as my HFC is right there at the axle.

I had to pick up a larger clamp to make it around the cat for the middle clamp.

Hopefully it's keeps from cooking my replacement axles, rather not do that again if I can help it.

How far does it wrap around the pipe? With the 1/2” standoff could you get one between the pipe and the firewall?

 

I put my Perrin pipe in last weekend and am a little concerned about how close the pipe gets to the firewall, I can just get my finger between at the closest point.

I’d say about 60% coverage around my DP what you see in the pic is about it. I’d figure the standoff plus 1/4” to allow for the thickness of the shield. Also it’s quite flexible so if you need to doink a spot to get around or past something it’s easy to form.
