Yes it will have heat shields and im going to try and make it fit the stock fans both of them, also fitting everything stock as possible. i will know for sure in like 2-3 weeks when my material and turbo come back. I sent my comp tipple bb back in to get the billet upgrade. i will be using my turbo for mock up. It will be the 4inlet and 3 outlet big cover. with 3in dp.

It will also have heat sheilds on the lower half covering were the oil pan will be close to pipes.

i will try and brake this kit down for options for people to have such as heat shields or not. My heat shields wont be really cheap. i plan making them contoured to the header pipes, and also have insulation on the inside or sandwiched with insulation ( will be not cheap by any means ) Hopefully i find a way of just using insulation without sandwiching it.

also will have options for egt in every runner, 02 bungs in every runner. And the standard one on each bank for your stock o2 sensors or widebands for standard fuel trim. Good to have even if you dont use them now, great to have the for trouble shooting problems if they ever arise.

Ceramic coating optional, i will use a place locally called, polydyn. ( i can only give estimate on this after its built and they see it. ) used them before with great success.

Mild steel optional? (dont think the price change could justify it in material cost)

Fmic optional

(Drivers side or pass) intake with bigger surge tank optional. Must send in yours for conversions.

v-band connections or 2 bolt? ( undecided if i should just one style only, V-band )

P.S.
If any of you know a good website builder guy interested in a kit discounted for exchange, but no first timers, i would like to see something they already built. Pm if any ones interested. I also have a couple local friends i might use if i cant find someone on here for (trade).

Thats great news about the fans since the stock fans are better than just about any you can buy. Also my turbo will be a garrett 37 frame compressoer housing, for a size reference...

This deserves discussion, Mark has been suggesting that the Spal fan's are an upgrade to the stock ones, they do seem like one company that MAY be able to pull it off, I'd want to see figures on the stock fans first though...

look at the fans ill be using, SPAL USA

These have a pdf file that gives you the flows of the fans and different restricition levels, they pull up to looks like 22amps each, and a max suction flow of 1640cfm each. Im also making a custom alum fan shroud for these fans. These are not cheap by any means. But the best never are.

On my last engine i had overheating problems with (4) mishimoto fans 2 pushers and 2 pullers( only flow 900cfm rating with no rating on restrictions). with a koyo rad and 3inch fmic core. In the hot texas heat with the a.c. on in stop or slow traffic i overheated.

Im also using the spal fan controller on the new engine, very very nice controller already installed one in davids car and it works like a charm.
now i wont have to worry about that anymore.

You could do a suction test on oem vs spal but im not spending the money to proove what i already know from seeing stock fans, cheap aftermarket and these.
Stock fans do work great for some, but if you want the most flow you wont be disoppointed is these. they do have slim line fans, but they cant match the flows of the spal high performance or extreme fans. the pitch on the fan blade is huge, thus combined with a strong heavy duty motor give great flow that cant be matched.
