Regular sockets will do the job. Just wondering, but why are you taking it off?

If you're going to run without a heat shield I would suggest heat wraping your headers and doing that mod where the back of the hood is partially open.
The headers get pretty hot and that can cause damage to your paint.1993 Accord EX2011 Subaru STi

Its not dumb, I don't run one either, but its just nice to leave on there. Lower engine/enginebay temps are always good.Comment
