This is a common issue with rear wheel drive cars. Few things you can do to help curve the heat. Put an external transmission cooler on and insulate the trans tunnel some more.

Yeah, pretty much everything associated with the center console will get hot.

That hole is for E-brake cable adjustment.

I was having the same heat issue from the tunnel and used this product http://www.verociousmotorsports.com/...diant-Heat-Mat from Verocious Motorsports. It was a night and day difference. My tunnel had to be cut for the V160 so any holes I found I taped the shield over. I also lined inside the console area. Sorry I didn't take any pics, quickGS300 can vouch for this stuff too.
