Do I Need a Heat Shield?
As some of you may know I recently installed my Tsudo exhaust, which replaced my OEM catalytic converter.
The exhaust did not come with a heat shield, but I know the OEM cat had one. I was just wondering if I should look into putting a heat shield on there. The cat does not look to be very close to any wires (obviously), but is there any danger of overheating anything else? |

It's not necessary for the overpipe back as much as it is for headers to be coated if you go that route.
