This Version 2 (V2) design offers improved turbo coverage, better looks, extreme durability, and an easier install.

GrimmSpeed designed this Turbo Heat Shield to help keep your engine temps down no matter what combination of up pipe, downpipe or EWG setup you are using. This heat shield is the only one currently on the market designed to work with all other setups, including downpipes up to 4 inches in diameter, external wastegate and dump pipe combos and aftermarket turbochargers. During testing this GrimmSpeed Heat Shield was shown to reduce under hood temperatures by over 20 degrees Fahrenheit in many areas including intake air ambient temperature. This evidence shows that the GrimmSpeed Turbo Heat Shield is a great upgrade that can improve engine longevity and performance!

Installation is a simple bolt on process that does not require removal of the intercooler or turbocharger. Two of the OEM heat shield brackets must be reused (Subaru part numbers: 44021AA014 and 14427AA022).

Key Features:
  • Keeps under hood temps lower.
  • Won't overheat the turbo like some turbo blankets will.
  • Intercooler and air intake temps stay much cooler for better performance.
  • Enhanced turbo and downpipe coverage.
  • Fits all factory turbos and most aftermarket stock location upgrades.
  • Durable 304 stainless steel construction.
  • Fits most stock and aftermarket downpipes including 4 inch designs.
  • The only heat shield that will work with EWG and dump pipe setups.
Optional Ceramic Coating: An additional layer of heat protection that is added to the GrimmSpeed Heat Shield to provide more heat resistance and long lasting good looks.
