Gold Heat Shielding On Intake Pipes – Why you need it
Gold heat shielding. If you have your MAF sensor mounted on your intake and the pipe is close to the exhaust, heat soak into the sensor will be extreme. Shielding the pipe from heat will increase sensor life and accuracy.
Wrapping the intake in reflect-a-gold does NOT make a big difference to the temperature of the intake air, the air is moving too quickly for it to be affected by the heat of the pipe.
