Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket for Audi TTS IS38 – Focused Heat Control for Turbocharged Performance
What the Funk Motorsport Audi TTS IS38 Turbo Blanket Does
The Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket is engineered for the IS38 turbocharger found in the Audi TTS (8S, 2015+), as well as other IS38-equipped Audi TT, TTS, and TTRS models. Its primary function is to contain and manage the intense heat generated by the turbo, reducing radiant heat transfer into the engine bay. This helps protect nearby wiring, hoses, and sensitive components, while supporting more stable intake temperatures and consistent turbo performance during spirited driving or track use.
Real-World Problem: Turbo Heat and Engine Bay Protection
Turbochargers like the IS38 can create excessive heat under the bonnet, leading to heat soak, degraded component reliability, and inconsistent engine performance. Without effective thermal management, this heat can shorten the lifespan of plastics, wiring, and even degrade intake air quality, especially in tuned or hard-driven vehicles. The Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket addresses this by acting as a thermal barrier, helping to keep engine bay temperatures in check and supporting both reliability and performance.
Where This Turbo Blanket Is Most Useful
This product is ideal for Audi TTS (8S, 2015+) owners running the IS38 turbo—whether stock or tuned—who want to protect their engine bay from heat damage, maximise turbo efficiency, or prepare their car for track days and spirited road use. It is especially valuable for builds with increased boost, upgraded intake or exhaust systems, or those seeking to maintain reliability under demanding conditions. The removable design also suits enthusiasts who perform regular turbo maintenance or modifications.

Construction and Material Details
The Funk Motorsport IS38 Turbo Blanket features a robust 4-layer construction, designed to provide substantial thermal insulation compared to standard turbo jackets. Buyers can select either Titanium or Carbon Fibre finishes for functional heat management and a tailored engine bay appearance. The innovative removable design allows for easy access during routine turbo maintenance, supporting both performance and serviceability.
Installation and Usage Guidance
This turbo blanket is designed for direct fitment to the IS38 turbocharger found in Audi TTS (8S, 2015+) and compatible TT/TTRS models. No specialist tools are required. For best results, ensure the turbo surface is clean and cool before installation. Routine checks are recommended, particularly after track use or high-heat driving, to maintain optimal performance and longevity. The removable feature means you can inspect or service the turbo without damaging the blanket.
