Yes! Whilst we may not have every turbo listed, we are confident we have a Turbo Blanket for most. This could generally mean that many turbos utilise the same or very similar blankets to one another. Whilst each turbo can vary in physical size, this is generally only a few mm between frame to frame. These small differences aren’t enough to generally jump up or down a size in Turbo Jacket, since our textiles materials are very versatile.

All three of our blanket finishes feature the same industry-leading construction methods that we are known for here at Funk Motorsport. Titanium and Carbon Fibre Turbo Blankets have a different outer layer for aesthetic purposes, allowing you to choose the best finish to suit the look of your car or engine bay. Titanium and Carbon Fibre Turbo Jackets are designed to have direct heat contact on the inside of the blanket only.

Our Inside Out Blankets however, have a different function and feature the internal material, mirrored on the external face. This is important as our Inside Out Blankets can withstand direct heat contact on both the internal and external faces. This finish offers a solution for those that have a heat source that will rest against the external face of the blanket. This may be an exhaust, oversized exhaust clamp that will touch the outside, or any other external heat contact that could be incurred by incorrect fitment where the blanket is folded over on itself.

It is important to choose the correct Turbo Blanket finish for your application.

No! In most cases, Turbo Jackets can be installed on the car, without removal of the turbo. Sometimes people choose to fit Turbo Blankets if they remove their turbo for maintenance, however this is generally not necessary. Some applications will be a little more fiddly than others, however, most can be fitted at home on your driveway! See the Fitting Guide on each Turbo Blanket product page to understand a little more of what is involved when fitting each Turbo Blanket type!

We have tried to make this as simple as possible! Either use the Turbo Blanket Finder tool, or search via turbo make, or make/model of your vehicle using the categories that you can find here. Still can’t find what you need? Get in contact, where we will be more than happy to find the correct blanket for you.

This is a common misconception. A Turbo Blanket actually separates the turbine housing from the core (in regards to temperature split). This allows the core work with less heat strain on it, meaning that the chance of failure is lower. Importantly, excess heat energy is retained within the exhaust gases. Hotter gases accelerate faster than cooler gases, reducing the overall effect that it would have on the turbo’s life.

Win all around! Lower engine bay temperatures, less heat soak, lower intake temperatures, faster spool up, and more reliable performance! It’s a no brainer.

Any increase in gas temperature happens after the combustion chamber, so wouldn’t have an affect on the combustion process. We understand that a lot of “tuners” get hooked up on EGT numbers, but you have to look at where in the cycle they are being measured. In this instance the temperature of the bang in the combustion chamber will not increase, therefore ruling out all concerns.

No! In fact, a Turbo Jacket will actually help to reduce oil temperatures, and therefore improve cooling! Turbo blankets are thick, and offer protection for the oil feed/drain lines, resulting in a cooler oil entering the turbo, and allowing it doing a more efficient job of cooling the turbo core!

As with any turbo application, to maintain turbo life and reliability, it is recommended the correct turbo cool down procedure is taken after a spirited drive. This procedure is no different when using a Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket.

Turbo Blankets are designed to reduce heat output from the hot turbine housing. With the close proximity to the compressor housing, this is key to reducing Air Intake Temperatures (AIT). Lower AITs result in a more consistent power delivery run after run! Turbo Blankets also help to massively create a lower engine bay temperature, providing more efficient conditions for improved oil temperatures, lower fuel temperatures and more reliable electronic components.

The final benefit of a Turbo Jacket, is that the heat energy that is normally lost, is retained within the exhaust gases, creating a faster spool time, and improving flow through the entire exhaust system.
