Funk Motorsport Audi RS5 2.9 V6 (B9.5) Twin Turbo Blanket – Heat Shield for Engine Bay Protection

Turbo Blanket Solution for Audi RS5 2.9 V6 (B9.5) Twin Turbo

Funk Motorsport’s turbo blanket for the Audi RS5 2.9 V6 (B9.5) Twin Turbo is engineered to address the heat management challenges unique to high-performance, twin-turbocharged engines. Designed specifically for the B9.5 RS5 platform, this blanket helps protect critical engine bay components from excessive heat, supporting consistent turbo performance and long-term reliability for demanding drivers.

How This Turbo Blanket Supports Your RS5

Turbochargers generate intense heat, especially under spirited driving or track use. Without effective insulation, this heat can soak into surrounding wiring, hoses, and intake components, leading to premature wear, reduced performance, and increased risk of heat-related failures. The Funk Motorsport turbo blanket is designed to contain and isolate this heat within the turbo housing, minimising radiant heat transfer and helping to keep under-bonnet temperatures under control.

Where This Upgrade Makes a Difference

This turbo blanket is ideal for:

• RS5 B9.5 owners seeking to reduce engine bay heat for improved reliability
• Drivers running performance modifications or higher boost levels
• Track-day enthusiasts and spirited road users wanting consistent turbo response
• Anyone aiming to protect sensitive components and wiring from heat damage

By supporting lower intake temperatures and shielding vulnerable engine bay parts, this upgrade is a practical choice for both daily-driven and performance-focused RS5 builds.
