Not my best work but doesnt do a damn thing.
So the question is, should i have NOT push it down theough all the nooks and crannies, should i instead of just stuck it to a few places and left a gap between the hood and heat shield creating a barrier?
if it doesnt really matter then i can tell you this stuff i got doesnt do a damn thing, infact the outside feels like its hold more heat than inside outside is about 130F and inside is 105F at its max’s and turbos hottest unshielded area is about 230F
this is after about 20 min after ahutting the engine down

The best thing you can do is to insulate the hot side of the turbocharger, it'll drop the under hood temperatures dramatically and it is good for the turbocharger, increasing tit's efficientcy.

This. I bought a PTP turbo blanket from Detroit Tuned and that did more for under hood temps than my AEM intake, AEM heat shield, gold heat tape, removing the hood scoop grill. I can do multiple back to back hard pulls, have a red hot downpipe and put my hand directly on that blanket and it's mildly warm.
