Default New rr intake heat shield

Anyone getting this new product? Suppose to reduce the internal engine temperature by 20+ degree, increasing power delivery.

Here is the link

I just saw this on RR Racing and looking at getting one myself. I am interested to hear if anyone has installed it yet. I just installed a Toms racing filter but still have the stock intake elbow.

I believe Rafi said they aren't shipped out til November. I know a few members order it, including Pheen so I guess we just wait! I was considering picking one up also but we'll see!

That's a simple way to increase power, through efficiency. I think I might pick one up too. I'll see how it turns out of everybody. Thanks for posting this up guys!

Did you have to cut anything or was it a straight bolt on?
