The Funk Motorsport IHI VF36 Turbo Blanket is engineered specifically for the IHI VF36 turbocharger, offering targeted thermal insulation for high-performance, motorsport, and off-road builds. This product is designed for enthusiasts and professionals seeking to control under-bonnet temperatures, protect sensitive components, and support consistent turbocharger performance under demanding conditions.
By wrapping the turbine housing of the IHI VF36 turbo, this blanket helps contain extreme exhaust heat, reducing radiant temperatures in the engine bay. This insulation minimises the risk of heat damage to wiring, hoses, and nearby components, while also helping to reduce heat soak that can affect turbo efficiency and responsiveness. The result is a cooler, more reliable engine bay environment—especially valuable for vehicles running higher boost, aggressive mapping, or extended hard driving.
This turbo blanket is best suited for:
Owners of Subaru STI models and other platforms using the IHI VF36 turbo will benefit from improved component longevity and more stable turbo performance in both daily and extreme use scenarios.
The Funk Motorsport IHI VF36 Turbo Blanket features a multi-layer construction, combining heat-resistant materials for maximum insulation and durability. Each finish—Titanium, Carbon Fibre, and Inside Out—offers the same core protection, allowing buyers to choose based on appearance or specific thermal requirements. This construction is designed to withstand the extreme temperatures generated by the VF36 turbo, providing reliable protection in demanding applications.
This blanket is tailored for the IHI VF36 turbocharger, ensuring a precise fit. Installation is straightforward, requiring no specialist tools or permanent modifications. The removable design means the blanket can be taken off for routine turbo servicing or inspection, supporting ongoing maintenance without damaging the insulation. For best results, install on a clean, cool turbo and check fitment periodically, especially after extended use.
