I believe there are a few who have or provide some box that goes on the inside of the engine bay to help separate the engine/radiator from the intake filter which could help.

I can't speak for the quality, but they actually look good in that engine bay. Only thing I would have gone long tubes, but that's just me
Question: how is the sound?
Lmao. They sound amazing if you have the engine bay open and are revving, the washer mod tends to drown out the intakes

I had a feeling short rams would do that when they are sucking in hot air, I am most likely going to fabricate heat shields or purchase some clip on ones off eBay since those are really cheap and they just clip on to the filter itself.
