Funk Motorsport IHI TD04-15T Turbo Blanket Overview
The Funk Motorsport IHI TD04-15T Turbo Blanket is a specialised heat management solution designed specifically for IHI TD04-15T turbochargers. Engineered for demanding motorsport and performance applications, this turbo blanket helps control under-bonnet temperatures, supports turbocharger efficiency, and protects sensitive engine bay components from excessive heat exposure.
How the Turbo Blanket Works
This turbo blanket insulates the turbine housing of the IHI TD04-15T, containing radiant heat produced during boost. By keeping heat within the turbo, the blanket reduces the risk of heat soak affecting nearby wiring, hoses, and intake components. This helps maintain cooler intake air temperatures, supports turbo efficiency, and can contribute to improved reliability in both road and track environments.
Where the IHI TD04-15T Turbo Blanket Is Useful
The Funk Motorsport IHI TD04-15T Turbo Blanket is ideal for enthusiasts and professionals running IHI TD04-15T turbos in high-performance, track, or off-road builds. It is particularly valuable for vehicles operating in confined engine bays or under sustained high load, where managing heat is critical to performance and component longevity. Typical users include those seeking to:
- Reduce under-bonnet temperatures in turbocharged vehicles
- Protect wiring, hoses, and intake systems from radiant heat
- Support consistent turbo performance during repeated boost cycles
- Enhance thermal management for reliability in motorsport or expedition builds
