The Funk Motorsport IHI VF26 Turbo Blanket is precision-designed for the IHI VF26 turbocharger, offering advanced heat management for demanding road, motorsport, and off-road applications. This model is part of Funk Motorsport's specialist IHI Turbo Blankets range, supporting enthusiasts and professionals seeking to protect engine bay components and optimise turbo performance.
This turbo blanket insulates the turbine housing of the IHI VF26, helping to contain extreme heat generated during boost. By reducing radiant heat transfer into the engine bay, it helps protect sensitive wiring, hoses, and electronics from thermal damage, and supports more consistent turbocharger operation under sustained load. Effective heat containment also minimises heat soak, which can degrade performance and reliability in high-output builds.
The IHI VF26 Turbo Blanket is especially useful for:
Owners upgrading or maintaining vehicles with the IHI VF26 turbo will benefit from improved component protection and easier servicing compared to generic turbo blankets.
Each finish is constructed to withstand the demanding thermal environment of turbocharged engines, but your choice may depend on your build’s priorities—whether that’s maximum heat resistance, aesthetics, or serviceability.
The IHI VF26 Turbo Blanket is tailored for a direct fit to the IHI VF26 turbo. Installation is straightforward for experienced enthusiasts or professional workshops, with no special tools required. The removable design simplifies routine turbo maintenance, making it easier to inspect or service the turbo without damaging the blanket. Always allow the turbo to cool fully before removal or adjustment.
