Funk Motorsport McLaren 12c Twin Turbo Blanket – Turbo Heat Management

Funk Motorsport McLaren 12c Twin Turbo Blanket Overview

The Funk Motorsport McLaren 12c Twin Turbo Blanket is purpose-built for owners seeking advanced heat management for their McLaren 12c’s twin turbochargers. Engineered specifically for the 12c platform, this turbo blanket is designed to contain and reduce extreme turbo heat, supporting both performance and reliability in demanding conditions. Available in Titanium, Carbon Fibre, and Inside Out finishes, it features Funk Motorsport’s signature four-layer construction for superior thermal protection.

How the Turbo Blanket Improves Your McLaren 12c

This turbo blanket is designed to insulate the turbocharger’s turbine housing, significantly reducing radiant heat within the engine bay. By containing heat at the source, it helps protect sensitive engine components, wiring, and hoses from thermal damage. The result is improved turbo efficiency, reduced heat soak, and a more stable engine bay environment—critical factors for both spirited road driving and track use.
