A turbo blanket is an insulating cover designed to wrap around a turbocharger. It serves several important functions, particularly in performance and racing applications. Here’s a detailed overview:
Purpose:
- Heat Retention: The primary function of a turbo blanket is to retain heat within the turbocharger. This helps keep the exhaust gases hot, which can improve turbo efficiency and response.
- Under hood Temperature Control: By containing heat, turbo blankets help reduce under hood temperatures, protecting nearby components (like wiring, hoses, and intake systems) from heat damage.
- Performance Improvement: By maintaining optimal temperatures, they can enhance turbocharger performance, leading to better throttle response and increased power output.
Benefits:
- Reduced Turbo Lag: By keeping the turbo hot, the turbocharger can spool up more quickly, reducing lag and improving responsiveness.
- Improved Engine Performance: Maintaining higher temperatures in the turbo can lead to better overall engine performance and efficiency.
- Protection: The blanket protects the turbo from environmental factors, including dirt and moisture, which can lead to corrosion and wear.
Applications:
- Performance and Racing Vehicles: Commonly used in modified street cars, race cars, and turbocharged engines where maximizing performance is critical.
