That's the problem with 8v T. My firend also has one. Even the gear linkages are close.

get a heatshield from any car and put it over. the metal ones. also some guys use like a dynamat extreme, its heat resistant to a certain temp.

U get a nice aluminium tape that u put on the thinks that you want to protect. It reflects a lot of heat. Then u go on ebay and buy vulcan titanium wrap. Its made of crushed vulcano rocks weaved into a titanium mesh. Wrap all the hot ISH with that a buy a vulcan turbo blanket. Not much more u can do.
