Got a question for anybody that can answer it. I bought some ceramic DC headers for my Z because I got it at a great price for being new, but I was reading that the heat shield has to be removed for it to be installed which causes the engine bay to heat up more. Should I be worried about it, is it gonna cause a problem if I dont shield it or whatever, basically what are the negatives???

Can some of you direct me in the intake issue, I have an 06 grand touring not looking to do many mods, would like to install a cold air intake, maybe Nismo, K N Typhoon or other but do not want to modify sensors or other. Help ?
