heat from turbos

I have done a search.
I would like to know how far away there turbos are mounted from other important parts of the car? And pics detailing if possible.
My dilemna is that my turbo is very close to my brake master cylinder. This is not the best pic of it but it is very close, about 2cm.
I was planning on using a metal heat shield with bonnet heat insulation on one side of it going from the firewall through to the front of the turbo. And another shield coming off the turbo heat shield and directing air flow out the bottom of engine bay. I also have one of the pipes there to duct air along the heat shield between shield and master cylinder.
The dump pipe was going to be HPC coated and exhaust wrapped also.
My mechanic has said that he thinks the turbo will have to be moved from where it is using a wedge style thing welded to the flange. The only problem with that is redoing intercooler piping and making sure that it still fits under the bonnet. It is VERY close right now which is the reason why I now have a bonnet scoop.
So any opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Chris
