Will a T-304 stainless or plastic heat shield work the best to protect the filter from engine heat?

the what filter? air filter.... I'd use some sort of phenolic that doesnt conduct thermal energy
and put soemthing reflective on it that reflects away a lot of the radiant heat from the turbo.

I use Reflect-A-Tape on my heatshield. It must do something

You guy gonna laugh when I tell you: the material that same with the Post Office mail handler use,..
the little white tray. It help to isolate the heat from the turbo to intake in my car so well. It was used in the Lexus to protect the battery from the engine heat.
