COBB Turbo Heatshield Subaru Legacy GT (2005-2009) GT Spec B (2006-2009) 514510
Fitment Information
- Subaru Legacy GT (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009)
- Subaru Legacy GT Spec B (2006, 2007, 2008, 2009)
Specs & Features
- 304 Stainless Steel Armor: Constructed from heavy-duty stainless steel specifically chosen to survive extreme turbo heat cycles without warping or cracking.
- No More Tin Snips: Unlike the factory shield, this is designed to clear massive aftermarket downpipes (including COBB’s own 3" bellmouth) without any cutting or trimming.
- Extended Coverage: Features updated extended-length edge flanges that wrap further around the turbine housing for superior heat containment.
- Knuckle-Saving Install: innovative slotted bolt holes allow you to drop the shield into place and tighten it down without blindly fumbling with bolts in tight gaps.
- Thermal Defense: physically blocks radiant waste heat from cooking your top-mount intercooler and intake manifold, preserving horsepower.
- Stock Turbo Friendly: Specifically engineered to fit the factory turbocharger footprint (or stock-location replacements) perfectly.
Product Description
The factory heat shield is an eyesore. It’s bulky, it rusts, and the moment you try to install an aftermarket downpipe, you have to attack it with tin snips just to make it fit. COBB Tuning engineered a solution that looks as good as it performs. This isn't just a shiny cover; it is a thermal barrier. By using high-grade 304 stainless steel with newly designed "extended flanges," the COBB shield traps radiant heat at the source (the turbine housing) and prevents it from rising into your intercooler. As any Subaru owner knows, a heat-soaked intercooler equals lost power.
But the real genius is in the installation. If you have ever tried to bolt a heat shield onto a Subaru turbo, you know the pain of dropping bolts into the abyss of the engine bay. The engineers at COBB Tuning added slotted mounting holes to this latest edition. This means you can loosely install the bolts first, then simply slide the shield down onto them and tighten. No more squeezed hands or lost hardware. Whether you are building a show car or a track weapon, this shield protects your vital components from heat death while letting everyone know you run the best parts in the business. Compatible with the stock turbo and most stock-location upgrades, this is the finishing touch your build is missing.
