I know K&N sell a Induction with a heat shield already on it. I'm tring to find out if that shield can be bought on its own.

Also, I think ECOTek make a heat shield for their induction kit but I don't know if they sell the shield on it's own.

About the flatspots maybe that reseting the ECU can help.About the haet shielding i think this has been done beforeut the k&n in the standard air box,isolate the inside of the box with any heat shielding material,cold air feed.

you could try heat shielding the cone filter all the way round and leave the end open for the cold air pressure feed
