Product Description

The Torque Solution TS-TB-LSU Thermal Turbo Blanket is engineered to manage the intense heat emitted from the hot rear housing of turbochargers found on Subaru vehicles with OEM small-frame turbos. Its multilayer construction combines a volcanic rock outer surface with insulated fiberglass and a protective wire mesh shell - effectively trapping heat within the turbo and dramatically reducing radiant heat transfer into the engine bay. This helps protect sensitive components like wiring harnesses, intake plumbing, and sensors from heat soak while also assisting the turbo in maintaining internal heat energy for improved responsiveness and spool characteristics.

Designed for broad compatibility with Subaru WRX and STI models from 2002 through 2021 - plus many other Subaru turbocharged platforms using similar small-frame turbochargers - this turbo blanket installs quickly with high-temp straps and does not require special tools. Enthusiasts looking to enhance performance durability, reduce under-hood temperature stress, or simply safeguard their engine bay during spirited driving will benefit from this rugged, lightweight thermal solution.
