I think the engine bay temperature would be unchanged when comparing your heat shield vs. no heat shield. I think the only benefit would be to reduction of direct heat applied to the TMIC like Cody said. The aftermarket heat shield would IMO let more heat into the engine bay vs. the stock heat shield.
