You mean with a heat shield. w/ = with, w/o = without

aluminum is has a very high thermal conductivity, probably the highest of any metal

[bigred318]

yeah a good thing to do is go to his feedback and see how many of this items he sold i didnt see any! haha That material is shit if you are going to buy it off ebay, look for a little bit more spendy one they are there i have found them, but make sure you buy the right one, if your car is pre 95. and remeber you are going to have to leave the black tube out of your throttle body on, so that your can doesnt die without that tube in the back of the black thing off, so remember all that!

Aluminum doesn't conduct energy that well, but it still will. Gold is obvioulsy a better conductor, that's why all high quality electronics use gold connections. But still, be wary.

I have no idea what david just said, but i think he's talking about the temp sensor, but it doesn't matter if it has an opening or not for it.
