Rev Motoring turbo heat shield (N18)?

Wanted an M7 one, but couldn't justify the price of $160-170.

Saw this one on amazon & ebay, and the reviews seem good (Rev motoring website looks legit).....but wanted to confirm if it would fit our R60 S.

is the configuration of our engines the same as a 07-14 cooper/clubman?

NM has one for the n18 that's around 142.

Most are n14 or N18, thats the split, you have a N18 engine.

The M7 one fits really bad and always seem to get rust on them so we never install or recommend them.

For that one you are looking at there it isn't a good design either as the back of it is open so you will just get all the heat directed to the valve cover and melt it. So it will actually hurt you don't do it.

If you want real heat protection our WMW turbo wrap is the real solution that goes under the stock heatshield and it works just ask around here on the forum.

We do often get people that do the NM with it, but I'd just go with the wrap first and see what you think. Also monitor your intake temps before and after so you can see.
