So, when I did the exhaust, I pulled off the turbo heat shield. I was planning on cutting it and just throwing it back on. There is noticable heat soak and am curious about different options.

I know you can use the stock cut one, or you can get a Cusco type hat shield, or you could use both the stock and a cusco on top of the stock.

What is everyone else doing? Is it really worth it to spend a additional 100$ to throw a cusco ontop of the stock heat shield?
