I have exhaust wrap on my mani and dp and it does help but the turbo still radiates a good bit of heat. On my car I've burned through two brake master cylinder resivours because of the heat from the turbo, before I started to wrap things and add shields. Road racing is also the most taxing on all of your cooling systems and would build the most heat in the engine bay, so I've taken plenty of precautions in the terms of heat.
Oh, and be ready to look into a Koyo and an oil cooler.
If anyone needs custom oil coolers done contact me

Hey everyone. I am a new Z owner, just got it off ebay about month and a half ago silver 2003 mt. I'm in Baton Rouge, just wondering how many people on here are in the baton rouge area and if there are any events coming up. I would really like to meet some other Z owners.

These are some people from New Orleans and Greg from BR. I wasn't there because I had to work.
