yeah, the heat shield is to come, but these extractors radiate/conduct a massively larger amount of heat than the sttock 10mm thick cast manifold...
theyre only very thin walled, and i wouldnt be surpried if they glowed red hot on a hard run... and the pickup for the intake is just in front of all this, and runs directly over it...
ive been reading figures of 1% decrease in rwhp for every 10deg F increase in intake temp.
now assuming i have had an intake temp increase of ~80deg Celsius, that would be 144deg Fahrenheit, equating to (supposedly) a 14.4% decrease in power. lets assume she should be 190rwhp, less 14.4%, thats gives us an estimated 162rwhp... which is kinda close to the 150's that ive been recording.
to fully account for the hp loss though :: 21% = 210deg F increase = 116deg C ...which id think is a little unlikely...
add that to the list of ecu woes, and maybe im getting close....
any thoughts?
cheers
