Funk Motorsport Borg Warner KKK K04-001 Turbo Blanket – Borgwarner Turbo Heat Management

Advanced Thermal Protection for Borg Warner KKK K04-001 Turbos

The Funk Motorsport Borg Warner KKK K04-001 Turbo Blanket is purpose-built for owners and builders seeking effective heat management for their Borgwarner turbocharger system. Designed to fit the K04-001 turbo specifically, this blanket helps contain turbine housing heat, supporting engine bay safety, component longevity, and consistent turbocharger efficiency—whether your build is for road, track, or off-road use.

How the Turbo Blanket Supports Your Build

Turbochargers generate intense heat, which can raise engine bay temperatures and threaten nearby wiring, hoses, and plastics. By insulating the turbo housing, the Funk Motorsport blanket helps:

• Reduce heat soak into sensitive engine bay components
• Support more stable intake temperatures and turbo efficiency
• Lower the risk of heat-related failures on demanding builds
• Allow closer packaging of components in tight engine bays

This is especially valuable for high-performance, tuned, or expedition vehicles where reliability and safety are paramount.

Where This Turbo Blanket Excels

This product is ideal for:

• Performance road cars with the Borg Warner KKK K04-001 turbo
• Track builds requiring consistent turbo response and heat control
• Off-road and expedition vehicles exposed to sustained load and heat
• Any application where engine bay temperatures threaten reliability or component life

If you are upgrading your turbo system or want to protect your investment in supporting hardware, this blanket is a practical, proven solution.

Key Benefits for Borgwarner Turbo Owners
