Turbo Heat Management for BMW X5 xDrive35i N55 Engines

The Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket is purpose-built for the BMW X5 xDrive35i with the N55 engine, offering targeted thermal protection for the turbocharger. Designed for owners who demand more from their turbocharged BMW, this heat shield helps manage under-bonnet temperatures and supports consistent turbo performance in daily driving, spirited road use, or track environments.

How the Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket Supports Your BMW

This turbo blanket wraps around the turbocharger's turbine housing, creating a thermal barrier that helps contain exhaust heat within the turbo. By minimising radiant heat transfer, it helps:

  • Reduce engine bay temperatures, protecting surrounding components
  • Support turbocharger efficiency by maintaining optimal exhaust gas temperatures
  • Lower the risk of heat soak affecting intake and electronic systems
  • Promote reliability for both standard and tuned N55 engines

  • BMW X5 xDrive35i owners with the N55 engine seeking better heat management
  • Drivers running performance upgrades or higher boost levels
  • Anyone looking to protect wiring, hoses, and plastics from thermal stress
  • Enthusiasts who want a removable, service-friendly heat shield solution

Unlike generic turbo blankets, this model is tailored for the X5 xDrive35i N55 fitment, ensuring a secure and effective installation for this specific application.
