even on a low boost application the hot side will get HOT. although you may not have to run an intercooler, i would be more worried about excess heat buildup and firewall eatage...but hey i guess thats why i used to keep a fire extinguisher in my other car. im sure you could heat shield it and foil it and not have issues. if a stock cars turbo can glow red..that biotch it hot!
