as above looking for some advise of what heatshields yous are using and whats available for a 3 door
a friend of mine has recently had issues when driving his 3 door on boost the paint on the bonnet is bubbling up above the turbo which is a t34 as hes only running a standard 2wd heatshield
wondering if anybody else has had similar issues as painted the bonnet again but done the exact same again . so now going to go down the route of heat wraping the exhaust and heat deflector on under side of bonnet but just really wanting to see if anybody else had similar problems and what heatshield do they now use to cure this but hes not wanting to go for a 4x4 saff / escort cossie heatshield .
cheers

I just got the std 2wd one, cut out for the strut brace, no melted paint on mine(yet).
You can get specific turbo heat wraps so this might be a good idea ?, along with heat wrapping downpipe.
