That's the key, getting plenty of cold air to it and insulating it from the exhaust heat. I did a little project on this and made a heat shield, fitted a 4" cold air feed and bought a 180 degree hose to place the cone right behind the headlight. It worked really well. SteveH has gone further and fitted a 3-4" cold air feed in a hole in the inner wing.
