Stick on horsepower! I-M Shield™ can increase horsepower (up to 12 RWHP!). It works by shielding the intake manifold and reducing the heat radiating up from the top motor. This lowers intake manifold temperatures creating a more dense fuel and air mixture, creating more power. Think of it as an intercooler for your intake, same physics and chemistry just a different way to get there. Heavy duty adhesive will stick to any clean semi-smooth surface. Simply degrease, then clean surface, then wipe with pre-paint cleaner or isopropyl alcohol, let dry then firmly press the I-M Shield™ onto the underside of the intake manifold. Use provided edging tape to finish the install. I-M Shield™ comes pre-cut but may be trimmed with heavy scissors or utility knife! Get your I-M Shield and add some Instant-Muscle and blow the competition away.
I-M Shield™ significantly reduces the amount of heat transfer from the top of the engine to the intake manifold, helping to reduce air-intake temperatures and increase horsepower. Lower air-intake manifold temperatures create a denser air/fuel mixture, creating more power. Heavy-duty adhesive will stick to any clean, semi-smooth surface. Simply degrease the surface, wipe with pre-paint cleaner or isopropyl alcohol, let it dry, then firmly press the I-M Shield™ onto the underside of the intake manifold. Use the provided edging tape to finish the installation of this intake manifold heat shield. I-M Shield™ is available pre-cut for certain applications and in a universal kit that may be trimmed for a custom fit. Think of I-M Shield™ as an intercooler for your intake manifold, reducing the temperature of the air/fuel inlet charge for higher density and more power.

Q. Do I need to remove my factory foam on my intake manifold, and how do I do so?
A. Yes, you do need to remove any factory foam underneath the intake manifold. The I-M Shield must stick to a hard surface in order to maintain a long lasting bond. Peel the foam off, clean it good with carburetor spray or other degreaser, wipe with pre-paint cleaners and stick.
Q. Why do you recommend we wipe the top of the I-M Shield before using Weld Tape on the top of it?
A. The foil on the Sticky Shield has a coating for manufacturing purposes and during installation grease and dirt can also affect the Weld tapes bonding capability. Wiping with a pre-paint cleaner ensures it is sticking to a clean surface. |
