Intercooler heat shield idea

[TRDmod]

judst6 off the top of my head, correct me if im wrong but if you put a heat shield under the ic of a top mount, then that would restrict air going into the engine bay, which i think would then reduce the cooling capability of the car??

TRUE this is true
the air temp around the engine will change it will get hoter only by a bit

but hey im not pulling the monkey out of the guy it was a good idea and it would be good for a full on track/rally car if your constantly moving " intill the sheild heats up like an oven "
