Why a quality turbo blanket is so important

- We use Funk Motorsport turbo blankets on all of our twin-turbo Lamborghini and Audi R8 builds. They offer a wide range of benefits that, we believe, make them an essential addition to anyone running a high-power, turbocharged vehicle.
In this video, we explain the technology behind them and why we've fitted them to every TT package so far.

The super technical stuff is the main reason I wTch your channel . Thanks guys
Thank you! We try to stay geeky!! Lol
Thanks for sharing, great educational video!
Very welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
Is there any long term draw back to these; will they “wear out” the manifolds metal or fatigue it?
dam ricky wen u said the 5-600 iside temp to 100 outside temp WOW that shit is the pissa
Well explained. Nice video that - keep up the great work with the builds and the content. 🤘🤘
Would these be suitable in a circuit race car application?
Glad you liked it! We have done some bits for you guys too!
They certainly are Reido! Drop Funk a msg and let them know what you need!
Make one for binky ;)
I got a $30 turbo blanket And a $24 air inlet blanket only covers the part closest to the headers and turbo tho but that’s where the heats at so it helps, the air intake is more of shield from the outside heat not exactly a bone melting part of the engine but that cheap turbo blanket I’m impressed with been going strong 3 years now didn’t expect that I pretty much expected it to fall apart or melt or something as it degraded . Can they compete with $500 blanket maybe honestly jumping up to compete with $1200 probably not. I happy with them n curious to see how long they last bargin blankets who would have known
Great video and explanation as always Ricky! I wish there was a solution for RS6 C6 :)
Thank you, BMC do panel filters for them.
@@REPerformanceUK but not turbo blanket solution 😞
What ur opinion about head shielding manifold and turbo..?tte is using on all its turbos with manifolds
Yes if you can get heat shielding on the turbo and manifold it is a good thing!
Keep the hot things hot, & the cold things cold for maximum power & efficiency.
Wouldnt it makes more sense to shield out the parts that needs to remain cool, though that means a LOT LOT of shielding required.
Yes you're right hence something called O'connel shields. Look it up
Do you guys think they're worth doing on a stock turboed car with just a tune. Stock TD04 snails?
Yes we fit them in stock turbo cars too!
I have a 1980 Audi 200 5T.. which blanket would you recommend for this turbo please.. ?
Hello, give Funk a message and they can advise you accordingly! 👍🏼
Inconel shields are even nicer and can be removed and installed indefinitely
Just super expensive!
Common sense to stop heating the rest of engine bay ,used in the marine industry for many years
👍🏼
Is that a box of Oven Chips on the shelf behind you?
All engine rooms need spare oven chips! Lol
Does anyone make a split turbo, like F1? Stop all the heat probs.
Not technically a split turbo in the same sense but Porsche currently have a patent on an electric turbo. Small turbines in the exhaust that spin small generators that then power a large compressor.
Not exactly, the F1 turbo wouldn’t really work as theoretically it’s a giant motor/alternator in the exhaust!
I thought in FEW they split the turbo so the exhaust impeller is one end of the engine and the inlet/compressor is at the other with a shaft running between. They did run that way for a while at least. Good way of keeping the hot bits away from the intake..
Heat control with blankets for the sake of other components yes. Heat retained by turbo blankets in turbo bearings cooking oil into carbon, no.
Not exactly, the impeller housing is shrouded not the bearing core….

Turbo rebuilder on turbo blankets
If you running a high HP car there's Really no excuse for not spending 250-300 quid for a pair of blankets
👍🏼
no other options? this pampers is soo 2010...
What do you mean?
@@REPerformanceUK the wleded thermo isolation is less pain
But not as effective. Stock manifolds are wrapped with that, the heat shielding is still over 400 deg at peak load.
@@REPerformanceUKsounds not so bad - the pampers sometimes get on fire when oil drops down etc.
@@TurboAcki Everything catches fire when oil gets on it, as its the oil that burns. Cost vs benefit these blankets are unmatched. Its why F1, LMP. GT3 etc are all going back to fabric led heat management.
