Funk Motorsport Audi S7 (2012–2017) Turbo Blankets – Turbo Heat Management

Turbo Heat Management for Audi S7 (2012–2017) Owners

Funk Motorsport’s turbo blankets for the Audi S7 (2012–2017) are engineered to address the unique thermal challenges of the 4.0 V8 twin-turbo engine. Designed for direct fitment, these blankets help protect engine bay components, support turbocharger efficiency, and enhance reliability—making them a practical upgrade for drivers who demand more from their vehicle, whether on the road, track, or during spirited driving.

How Funk Motorsport Turbo Blankets Work

Turbochargers generate intense heat, which can radiate into the engine bay, affecting wiring, hoses, and intake components. The Funk Motorsport turbo blanket acts as a thermal barrier, containing this heat within the turbo housing. This helps reduce under-bonnet temperatures, minimises the risk of heat soak, and allows the turbocharger to operate more consistently under load. By controlling radiant heat, these blankets support both performance and the longevity of surrounding components.

Where This Upgrade Makes a Difference

This product is ideal for Audi S7 owners seeking to:

• Protect sensitive engine bay components from excessive heat
• Improve turbocharger efficiency and responsiveness
• Reduce the risk of heat-related wear during high-performance or track use
• Maintain more stable intake air temperatures for consistent power delivery

Whether you’re building a fast road car, preparing for track days, or simply want to safeguard your investment, these turbo blankets offer targeted thermal management for the S7’s powerful V8 turbo setup.
