KellyeFields made a nice shield our of some flat sheet Aluminum, I might do that to if the factory shield isn't working. Will bring it to the Dyno.. I cut out the fins inside of the front bumper. I got nice access into the that area.
Do you intend to use the honeycombs? Even the Stillen engineer I spoke with thought it might be a good idea. Maybe Osiris will sell you his. If the Stillen engineer is right my problem may have nothing to do with the Y-pipe intake. And you may not have any issues at all. Stillen has been selling these kits for years and there are not a ton of people chiming in here.

Just thought I would mention that other than this truly minor drive-ability issue the kit truly has been awesome - totally changed the character of the car.
