Welcome to the site, nice looking Saph there

As Gareth said, I would put a standard heat shield back on that turbo ASAP. You cause all sorts of problems without one (remember that the turbo will be glowing bright orange when you give it a good pasting and the clutch cable runs right by it along with other electrics and brake components that may or may not catch fire, but they will definitely go brittle and break a lot sooner due to the heat!)
