PTP Turbo Blanket

Anyone interested in a group buy, I am reaching out to them for a blanket for my CLA and the SL600....I would be glad to see if we can get a discount, easy install.

Blanket helps to retain heat in the turbo, increasing boost sooner...so you get max torque faster, google the study by the Univ of Texas Austin!

I have a thread in the M275 forum.....I am going to fit Subaru Blankets it, they advised the Subaru or T25/28 blanket would fit.......The didn't think the K24 would work on it after seeing a M275 turbo on ebay....

Copied this from the univ of Texas Austin Study
The turbine/compressor speed advantage with the turbo blanket occurred right after the beginning of the tip-in and was as high as 10,000-12,000 rpm after approximately 0.5 s. The wide load sweep (from ∼10% to 100%) in this comparison led to a considerably higher pressure difference between operation with the turbo blanket and the baseline case in comparison to the other two transient tests. After one second into the event of the baseline engine the application of the PTP Turbo Blanket led to a boost advance of about 0.3 s for this type of tip-in. This time advantage was followed by a boost pressure benefit of up to 30 kPa (= 0.3 bar) for the most of the engine acceleration so that the peak boost pressure was reached significantly earlier with the turbo blanket.
