The only heat management you can do is to move the filter placement. I have shielded, wrapped and header armored all around and in every case there are varying degrees of filter melt. Wrapping the manifold is fruitless. I've narrowed the source of the heat to the header/manifold flange. If you tried to wrap the fit would be difficult in and out. If you shield the filter itself it also makes it a difficult push in or coming out. The melting area is located in the 1'oclock to 10'oclock area of the filter. At it's mildest it raised the silicone and made it shiny, at it's worst it bubbled the silicone and was almost completely sheared. If it wasn't a problem there wouldn't exist two separate attempts to remedy. I have a collection of filters and also photos of my various attempts to mitigate. In the latest try I have used header armor on the manifold and around the filter and so far I'm ok but this is a stopgap for the relocation kit to be up and readily available. That's what I'm waiting for.

Lol nope. Another 8 months more then like lying

Moving the filter to the front won’t melt the filter. That was the whole reason behind the move. Hence why he also came out with the heat shield. Filter melting is a issue with this kit, just because yours didn’t or hasn’t melted doesn’t change the fact of the matter. You have any pictures to prove your statement throughout the six years? How many miles are you drivingbetween filter changes, your car a daily or hard parked.

Dude this isn’t even English.

What turbo are you running?

Lol likely. God damn auto text

Bp kit 6267 comp oil fed. Set up for time attack. Car is still a drill e at the shop for awhile. Going rogue with the set up.

I think that’s the difference right there. I have the original P6266 turbo, smaller filter. I assume that Comp has the ported compressor cover requiring that big *** filter.

Ahhhh yup

Yes..... Intake is in the front

How? I been trying to order one

Precision 6870 but it also happened with the 6266. Both have the 4" inlet.
Edit: The V1kit has a smaller filter V2 is all the same.

Not all e 6266 have the 4” inlet.

I just kept emailing him and he had one. I would try again.

Had my mount powder coated locally to match my underbracing
