The side nearest this pipe is definitely...

I was wondering is there a point of installing heat shiled for my air intake (Apexi cone filter) as I have FMIC? It's logical the the air anyway is going to be cooled down by the bigger intercooler.

Well the time has come where i have some spare cash to splash and iam thinking a FMIC could be the order of the day? My 2002 LC has all the usual bits (dyna twist,007,stage 2 Revo,S/S exhaust,soon to be turbo back) so a FMIC would make sence? Ive never felt the car lacking in anyway before and i...
