Funk Motorsport Garrett G42-1200 Turbo Blanket – Turbo Heat Shield

Funk Motorsport Garrett G42-1200 Turbo Blanket Overview

The Funk Motorsport Garrett G42-1200 Turbo Blanket is engineered specifically for the Garrett G42-1200 turbocharger, providing advanced thermal protection for demanding motorsport and high-performance road applications. Designed with Funk Motorsport’s signature four-layer construction, this turbo blanket delivers superior heat management, safeguarding your engine bay and supporting consistent turbo efficiency.

How the Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket Works

This turbo blanket is designed to insulate the turbine housing of the Garrett G42-1200, containing extreme heat generated during boost. By reducing radiant heat transfer, the blanket helps lower engine bay temperatures, protecting sensitive wiring, hoses, and components from thermal damage. This thermal barrier supports improved turbo response and reliability, especially in performance builds where heat management is critical.

Where the Garrett G42-1200 Turbo Blanket Excels

The G42-1200 Turbo Blanket is ideal for:

• Track and motorsport vehicles running high boost and sustained load
• Street performance builds seeking to maximise turbo efficiency
• Off-road and expedition vehicles where under-bonnet temperatures can affect reliability
• Any application using the Garrett G42-1200 turbocharger where heat containment is a priority

By maintaining lower engine bay temperatures, this blanket helps prevent heat soak, reduces the risk of heat-related failures, and allows for safer routing of wiring and hoses near the turbo.
