Funk Motorsport Borg Warner kkk K04-15 Turbo Blanket – Borgwarner Turbo Heat Management

Turbo Heat Management for Borg Warner kkk K04-15 Applications

The Funk Motorsport Borg Warner kkk K04-15 Turbo Blanket is purpose-built for owners and builders running the K04-15 turbocharger. Designed to address the unique heat challenges of high-performance and modified engines, this turbo blanket helps protect vital engine bay components and supports more consistent turbo performance under demanding conditions. Whether you’re building a fast road car, track day machine, or a tuned street vehicle, this blanket is engineered to meet the needs of serious enthusiasts and professionals who demand reliability and thermal control.

How the Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket Supports Your Build

This turbo blanket is specifically contoured to fit the Borg Warner kkk K04-15 turbine housing. By wrapping the turbo’s hot side, it helps contain and insulate extreme temperatures generated during boost. This reduces radiant heat transfer into the engine bay, helping to:

• Protect wiring, hoses, and sensitive components from heat damage
• Reduce the risk of heat soak affecting intake and cooling systems
• Support more stable intake air temperatures for consistent power delivery
• Improve under-bonnet safety and reliability, especially in high-boost or track environments

For owners of turbocharged vehicles using the K04-15, this blanket is a practical upgrade to manage heat in both daily-driven and motorsport builds.

Where This Turbo Blanket Makes a Difference

The K04-15 turbo is popular in performance builds where sustained boost and high exhaust temperatures are common. Excessive heat can degrade nearby components, cause premature wear, and reduce performance through heat soak. The Funk Motorsport turbo blanket is especially useful for:

• Track cars and time attack builds facing repeated high-temperature cycles
• Street performance vehicles with limited engine bay airflow
• Turbo conversions or upgrades where space is tight and heat management is critical
• Owners seeking easier turbo maintenance, thanks to the blanket’s removable design

By focusing on the specific needs of K04-15 turbo users, this blanket stands apart from generic alternatives.
