Cooling underbonnet temps can be done several ways. ApNess used bacofoil to good effect. Personally, I find ceramic coating the turbo and down pipe works well. Also, I am surprised your heat shield caught fire. That shouldn't happen anyway. Try putting some bacofoil over the heat shield too

My turbo did that once, but after I changed the oil cooler, it has not happened again. I have also seen my oil temperatures lower. Make sure your oil cooler is not blocked and is working correctly.....

P.S. It is not cheap especially if you need the cooler pipes too (I did )

And

Cheers.
