The Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket is engineered specifically for the VW Polo GTI MK6 equipped with IHI IS20 or IS38 turbochargers. This advanced heat management solution is designed to help Polo GTI owners control under-bonnet temperatures, protect sensitive components, and support consistent turbo performance in both daily and spirited driving scenarios.
Turbochargers generate intense heat during operation, which can radiate into the engine bay and affect nearby wiring, hoses, and intake components. The Funk Motorsport turbo blanket insulates the turbine housing, helping to contain heat within the turbo and reduce the risk of heat soak. By minimising radiant heat transfer, this blanket supports lower intake air temperatures, improved reliability, and a safer engine bay environment.
This product is ideal for VW Polo GTI MK6 owners who:
Whether your Polo GTI is a daily driver, a weekend track car, or a project build, this turbo blanket is a practical upgrade for anyone aiming to maintain reliability and performance under demanding conditions.
Funk Motorsport's signature four-layer construction is engineered for durability and effective heat containment. The blanket is available in both Titanium and Carbon Fibre finishes, offering a choice of appearance without compromising performance. The removable design makes it possible to access the turbo for servicing without damaging the blanket, supporting long-term reliability and ease of maintenance.
This turbo blanket is designed for a straightforward fit on IHI IS20 and IS38 turbochargers as found in the VW Polo GTI MK6. Installation can be completed with basic tools and mechanical knowledge. Always ensure the turbo is cool before fitting or removing the blanket. Periodic inspection is recommended, especially after track use or high-load driving, to ensure the blanket remains in optimal condition.
