Recently I had to remove my turbo heat shield to fit a pyro bung. The shield came off with not to many swear words but more than filled the swear jar when it came to be re-installed. I ended up making a few small modifications to it, namely removing the lip next to the turbo actuator and about 20mm off of the rear near the fire wall. I also rounded a couple of corners as well and then filed smooth. Also cut a hole for the bung and probe ( was fouling on the bung just enough to be a problem). Goes in now without a dirty word. I would be lucky if I removed more than 10% of material.
