@richardhammond’s Subaru Impreza turbo housing was not your conventional turbo, so we made this bespoke detachable heat shield design for Martin.

Our ZircoFlex® SHIELD can:

🔥 surface temperature reductions up to 85%
🔥 capable of direct contact of up to 1,000°C
🔥 help reduce inlet charge and engine bay temperature
🔥 increase engine power and torque

Can’t wait to see when @drivetribe @mike_fernie puts it to test!

⚡ Austin Allegro | @retropowercars
Project Lucky Strike pairs one of Britain's most unlikely icons with a Honda Integra Type R drivetrain and a seriously modern twist.

🔧 MGB | @cammy_eunos
Classic British looks hiding a supercharged Volvo T5 engine, BMW gearbox and plenty of Mazda DNA.

🐈 Audi 80 Coupé | @_yeknom_
Five years of painstaking work, race car stance and carbon-Kevlar bucket seats trimmed in Harris tweed and covered in cats.

🏁 Ford Escort Mk4 | @jez_carrera
Once a humble 1.3 Bonus, now producing 219bhp with Porsche-inspired styling and a full carbon fibre dash.

Four builds that challenge everything you expect from a classic. Find them in Hall 5 this November.

The next episode requires the next level of thermal management and @zircotec stepped up to the plate to take on the challenge and provide a complete pre and post turbo solution to get the heat levels down as low as possible!

I have covered this in deep detail in my incredible latest YT 🤣😂 including what’s different and why the change over!

One thing that the 🦅 👀 of you will notice is all the pre turbo tubing and gate have now been ceramic coated before shielding (insulation) I found the temps before were still insane under the bonnet to the point I was considering going back to a metal bonnet and chopping bits out, so had one final Hail Mary go at it and with the ceramic heat reflecting sheet I can now touch the bonnet after a ‘expressive’ drive 🤗

So why did I do ceramic too? Well step into my office 🫱🏻 I’ve estimated that full chat kicking its teeth right down its throat the internal gas temps are ~1000degC, the exhaust is schd-10 pipe so thermal coefficient of that brings outside wall temp to ~800degC. So Thermohold Ceramic plasma welded speed of sound coating can reduce surface temp up to ~30% so my brain said ok worst case -25% off 800degC for us to start with in the bay (600deg external temp) then we insulate the mani which can reduce up to 85% of surface temp, so I played with -75% you know, keep expectations realistic which gave me a theoretical surface temp of 150degC 🤗🤗🤗 those numbers properly got my 🍆 swole so pulled the trigger! What temps do I actually see in the real world? Check out the latest YT and you will see my full run down 😇

The heat management on the focus now done and I promise you won’t hear anything more from me about it…maybe 🤣😂

Thank you @zircotec for taking care of this for me and answering all my endless painful questions 😈😈😈
