Advanced Turbo Heat Management for Borgwarner S480 Applications
The Funk Motorsport Borgwarner S480 Turbo Blanket is purpose-built for the Borgwarner S480 turbocharger, delivering targeted thermal protection for high-output engines in motorsport, off-road, and custom street builds. This blanket is engineered to help control extreme turbine housing temperatures, supporting both performance and reliability where heat management is critical.
How the Funk Motorsport S480 Turbo Blanket Works
Excessive heat from a turbocharger can cause heat soak, degrade nearby wiring and hoses, and reduce intake efficiency. The S480 Turbo Blanket is designed to wrap securely around the turbine housing, containing radiant heat and reducing its transfer to the engine bay. This helps preserve the integrity of sensitive components and supports consistent performance, especially under sustained load or in confined engine bays.

Installation and Usage Notes
This blanket is engineered for a precise fit on the Borgwarner S480 turbo.
