Forge Turbo Blanket For T25/T28 Turbochargers

Forge Motorsport's Turbo Blanket is designed to insulate the rest of the engine from the heat of the turbo.

• Insulates the engine bay from turbo heat to protect other components and improves the aesthetics of the engine bay.
• Keeps hot air away from the intake's cold air side reducing turbo lag and air temperature to improve performance.
• A flexible carbon fabric outer shell and silicate wool inner core are designed to fit a range of popular turbos which hardens after heating cycles to produce a tough fitted profile.
• Strong stainless steel rivets ensure a secure and durable fixing.

Forge Motorsport developed their Turbo Blanket using experience gained with a number of their test vehicles. Designed to keep the heat of the turbo away from the rest of the engine, this wraps around the turbo and keeps the heat in. The flexible design means that it can accommodate a range of popular turbos, however, these blankets are application-specific to ensure the best fitment for their most effective use.

The FORFMTUBL12 Turbo Blanket is a universal design, specifically created for Forge Motorsport's Mk1 Golf demo race car fitted with an externally waste-gated Owen Developments GBT-5465-HTA turbocharger. It also fits but is not limited to a range of Garrett T25/T28 turbochargers (Garrett GT2254R, GT2560R, GT2871R, GT286ORS, GTX25/28, and TD04 14T, T25G, VF34, VF35, IGI VQ22).

Forge built this to stand up to the demands of motorsport and it's extremely well made. The outer is carbon fabric. The core is made of calcium magnesium silicate wool with a silica fabric inner liner. The inner surface can stand temperatures up to a maximum of 1370 degrees Celcius for short periods of time and sustained temperatures of 1000 degrees depending on the application.

The fabric used is flexible (until it is cured by heat) so this will potentially fit a wide range of applications. Once fitted, the heat from the turbo will cure it into shape and Forge doesn't recommend removing it.
