Distance from the Turbo has no effect on their effectiveness.

Very sharp, does the oil filter cook a little?

i was thinking more than just the filter...if you had no sort of shielding wouldnt the oil in the pan get rather hot?Youre talking a VERY hot turbo on both sides of the pan.

If you look close at the pic it is fake.This was already discussed in the corvette section. I dont know why they even posted it. I guess to get people to send them deposits or something.

Whats fake about it? If you're going to make a statement like that the least you can do is back it up.
