Intake and filter will fit, heat shield will not

thanks for the answer

If you like sucking hot air into your engine...

Why not buy a compatible intake that comes with a heat shield that fits?

If he's giving it to you for free and you'd like to use it maybe you can fab up a heat shield yourself. Basically you want to block the heat from the engine from entering the intake directly. Company do this with a simple thick plastic blocker that isolates the intake from the rest of the engine bay.

You could also try:

A. Searching eBay for the AFe heat shield and hardware for your IS
B. Calling AFe directly and ask about purchasing the shield and installation hardware
