I've been thinking about under hood temps lately so finding THIS was pretty cool. My DD doesn't have the heat shield over the turbo so and I've been thinking about just going with a thermal wrap of some kind. An air box would also be a nice way of controlling unwanted heat.
Yes I have the heat shield still but one of the screws that holds it is busted off. The motor came to me that way. I could probably fashion something, don't know yet.
Corky Bell talks about wanting to keep the heat and energy going through the turbine and out the tail pipe as if leaking thermal potential were a fairly serious matter, not even taking into account for under hood temps. (of course he talks at length about the temp of the intake charge)
