Funk Motorsport IHI VF22 Turbo Blanket Overview
The Funk Motorsport IHI VF22 Turbo Blanket is a performance-engineered heat shield designed specifically for the IHI VF22 turbocharger. Developed for demanding motorsport and high-performance road applications, this turbo blanket is crafted to help control under-bonnet temperatures, protect sensitive engine bay components, and support turbocharger efficiency. Available in Titanium, Carbon Fibre, and Inside Out finishes, Funk Motorsport's signature 4-layer construction sets a new benchmark for thermal management in turbocharged vehicles.
How the IHI VF22 Turbo Blanket Works
This turbo blanket wraps securely around the turbine housing of the IHI VF22, acting as a thermal barrier. By containing extreme heat within the turbocharger, it helps reduce radiant heat transfer to nearby wiring, hoses, and intake components. This containment supports lower engine bay temperatures, minimises heat soak, and helps maintain consistent turbo performance even during extended high-load operation.
Where the Funk Motorsport IHI VF22 Turbo Blanket Excels
The IHI VF22 Turbo Blanket is ideal for:
- Track cars and motorsport builds requiring maximum heat management
- Street performance vehicles with upgraded or factory IHI VF22 turbos
- Off-road and expedition rigs where reliability and component protection are critical
- Any application where engine bay heat threatens reliability or performance
By reducing heat soak, this blanket helps preserve intake air density, protects adjacent components, and supports safer, more reliable operation under demanding conditions.

Construction and Materials
Funk Motorsport's IHI VF22 Turbo Blanket features a proprietary 4-layer build, available in premium finishes to suit your build and style preferences. Each layer is selected to maximise heat resistance and durability, supporting reliable performance in motorsport, off-road, and street environments. The removable design is a unique innovation, allowing the blanket to be taken off for inspection or servicing without damage.
Installation and Usage Notes
This turbo blanket is designed for straightforward installation onto the IHI VF22 turbocharger. For best results, ensure the turbo is cool before fitting and follow manufacturer guidelines for securing the blanket. The removable feature allows for easier maintenance and inspection compared to traditional bonded turbo jackets. Routine checks are recommended to ensure the blanket remains secure and undamaged, especially after high-heat sessions.
