Message I am currently replacing my GT525 turbos with the GTX2863. Of course these are not a exact replacement so it is taking a little longer but definitely going to be worth it.

Since FedEx made a very late delivery I didn't' get them installed yesterday I guess I could have used my grinder late at night but didn't think the neighbors would have appreciated it :)

I plan to complete the install this afternoon and at a minimum get the engine back into the car before grilling and chilling this evening. This leads into my concern/ questions.

The concern: the original turbo heat shields don't fit

Question 1: Should I modify the heat shields to fit as best as possible?

Question 2: Should I just leave them off?

Question 3: What is the implications for not installing them?

Thanks for your input,

Sammy
