No, because the sensor is mounted in the UIM and the LIM is what's ceramic coated, right before going into the engine.

Agreed. I only have mine ceramic coated but I think I'd rather have the heat shield. Maybe the ceramic coating is helping a lot, but I'm not sure. Especially since all my stuff is done in black HAHA. I may look into getting a heat shield but the ones at Turblown I'm not sure will work because of how close my turbo sits, or maybe it's another reason, I can't remember now haha. I know there's a reason I haven't bought one though. Do those fit with a GZ LIM?
