That was one of my biggest concerns is keeping the under hood temps in that area down. Just looking at all the components in the immediate vecinity of the hot turbine housing, a little shielding can't hurt. After i get my blanket i will most likely get some of the other components in that area...

OK Thanks, just got the code and unfortunately its 36. I also went to swap out my PMD with my extra but come to find out my extra is bad lol.
The good news for the day is that with the warm weather we are having my truck has not thrown a code today at all and still runs like a champ.
