The BMW Z4 20i Turbo Blanket for the B48 and B46 Engine Platform. These turbo blankets offer both manifold protection and turbo heat protection. Bringing a 2 in one solution for reducing heat transfer from the hottest area of this German Saloon. By insulating the 2 hottest parts of your engine bay - the exhaust manifold and the turbo, you will see a huge reduction in under bonnet temperates, faster flowing exhaust gases, a more consistent power curve - pull after pull, more reliable components which live in close proximity to the turbo.

This Turbo Blanket for the BMW Z4 20i in Carbon Fibre Finish.

With a tight engine bay, and modern engineering, the turbos sit very close to power steering components, dampers and brake systems, causing potential reliability issues later. A turbo jacket REDUCES your under bonnet temperatures, creating MORE usable power throughout the entire RPM range, helping keep your surrounding components more RELIABLE, and helping to ACCELERATE the hot gases away from the engine.

The Turbo Jacket for the BMW Z4 20i is a one piece solution, which cover all areas of your manifold and turbine housing to provide MAXIMUM coverage and allow minimal heat soak. These Heat insulation blankets have been designed specifically for this turbo, unlike other manufacturers which utilise some one size fits all turbo blankets.

PLEASE NOTE, BMW ENGINE BAYS ARE TIGHT, AND THESE BLANKETS MAY TAKE A LITTLE TIME TO FIT DUE TO THE COMPLEX BAY.

A Funk Motorsport turbo blanket can help to:
  • Reduce Air Intake Temperatures, resulting in higher performance and more consistent performance figures.
  • Improve spool up times of your turbo.
  • Lower Engine bay temperatures.
  • Improve reliability of surrounding components in the engine bay

Whilst the new Funk Motorsport Mk3 turbo blanket offers the same benefits as our previous turbo jackets, the next iteration offers all new technology, unseen in the automotive aftermarket.In development for the past 12 months, Funk Motorsport have produced a turbo blanket that is more durable and outperforms any other on the market. We have looked closely at each component of our turbo wrap and have provided upgrades in every area.

Each Mk3 turbo blanket has had extensive improvements to the following areas

  • Specifically developed thread construction to allow for exceptional durability when removal is absolutely necessary. Our new fireproof ultra-high temperature Stainless Steel thread is around 1mm in diameter and can now remain highly durable with temperatures in excess of 1300°C.
  • New, thicker internal heat lagging insulation to provide up to 3x improved heat reduction. This insulation wool is created from a ceramic silica complex matting to improve durability over prolonged heat cycles, as well as insulation quantities.
  • 4-layer construction for improved reliability
  • Uprated external Carbon Fibre twill and Titanium twill for an improved aesthetic and more durable finish
  • ROHS tested and approved to ensure compliance and desired parameters are reached within our material selection
  • New style Funk Motorsport emblem for safer handling qualities.

You could say that our Mk3. Turbo Jacket is an entirely new product, and in fact, you are 100% correct. Each area has been improved to create the best heat insulation for a turbo in the world!

Turbo Jackets (or turbo beanies) are a necessary improvement for all cars using a standard turbo or an aftermarket performance turbo.

Turbo shields work by keeping the heat contained within the exhaust gases, actually helping to accelerate the gas. This acceleration can aid spool up time as well as remove the heat energy from the system – faster!

Our clients range from small turbo hatchbacks, up to huge drag race applications, and everything in between. Our heat shield insulation products can be found within the various famous project constructors; The Hoonigans, BMR BTCC team, European RX athletes, Luke Woodham – Gymkhana GRID champion, Duane Mckeever – British and Irish drift champion and many more!

Check out our performance and durability testing video of the Mk3. Turbo blanket on an R34 Skyline on the dyno.Our turbo blankets are available in both Titanium and Carbon Fibre finishes. Both variations perform to the same high standards, it is only the final top fabric which is different. This plays no role in its heat properties.Since a Turbo utilises the hot gas flow of the exhaust and the cool air flow of the intake, the close positioning of these two halves of the turbo leads to a high amount of heat soak. This blend of hot and cold parts of the turbo creates issues for both performance and reliability.
