Funk Motorsport IHI TD05-16G Turbo Blanket – IHI Turbo Heat Management

Funk Motorsport IHI TD05-16G Turbo Blanket Overview

Funk Motorsport’s IHI TD05-16G Turbo Blanket is engineered specifically for the IHI TD05-16G turbocharger, delivering advanced thermal management for demanding motorsport, off-road, and performance road builds. Designed to fit the unique contours of the TD05-16G, this turbo blanket helps protect engine bay components from excessive heat, supporting both reliability and performance.

How the IHI TD05-16G Turbo Blanket Works

Turbochargers generate significant heat, which can radiate into the engine bay and impact nearby wiring, hoses, and intake components. The Funk Motorsport IHI TD05-16G Turbo Blanket acts as a thermal barrier, containing heat within the turbo’s turbine housing. This insulation helps reduce under-bonnet temperatures, minimises heat soak, and supports more consistent turbocharger efficiency.

Where This Turbo Blanket Is Useful

This product is ideal for:

• Track and motorsport vehicles running IHI TD05-16G turbos
• Off-road builds where heat management is critical for reliability
• Performance road cars seeking to protect engine bay components
• Enthusiasts upgrading turbo systems and requiring proven thermal protection

By containing turbo heat, the blanket helps prevent damage to surrounding electronics, hoses, and intake systems—particularly valuable in high-performance or confined engine bays.
