And the other obvious thing is you probably don't have the heatshield on there any more either which is definitely going to let more heat radiate up and out.

The other downside is that it probably gets the exhaust manifold a little more wet and causes rust. I took a copper brush to my exhaust manifold to remove the rust that came on it from the factory.
