I purchased and just installed the Elite 1/4" with Abs insulation and it was a snap to install and I hope to see how well it works in a week or two. I had a lot of heat coming up off my long tube headers and exhaust and insulated the car for road noise and heat but still had a hot center console. The Elite tunnel plate is supposed to add some stiffness to the car and hold back the heat better. I am not too certain on the heat issue since there is still a sizeable air gap behind the clutch bell housing for hot engine air to run into but the exhaust pipes heat baking should be eliminated.
Give it a try.
Good luck.

Without a doubt, the 1/4" aluminum Tunnel Plate is the most popular selection. All the heat shielding benefits of the stainless with more stiffness.
