I was thinking about a shaped piece of Nimbus GII

linky

Not sure of the advantages of a bag versus a shield.

bag keeps heat inside = shield just deflects heat

Someone-else asked similar question this am.
Suggestion was to find some at the scrappy - loadsa cars use it as heatshield above the silencer - unless it's completely different material?

turbo bag.

I have wrapped mine in exhaust wrap seems to work as i can get hold of turbo when hot, very fiddly job though make sure it doesn't impede the waste gate.
