heat shields helps but IMO i dont really care, my STI had no any kind of heat shielding thing and it was just fine (my friend in STI,EVO doin perfectly fine without the shield, and their car well over 60k miles)
if you had chance to lift up the car(when the engine is hot as F***) and touch the exhaust, its not that hot after the y pipe section, i do not think thats hot enough to effect on any other wires or something, because it cant even burn my hand(well i had thin fabric gloves to keep my hands clean but thats it)
