Just wondering. How does it affect the warmup and constant engine temps up here in the Great White North at -40? I can see it as an asset in summer but what about winter?

You guys all rock! :hug: Thanks a lot for all the compliments! It seriously makes all the effort worth it when I see that it's making a difference to customers.

We don't normally get -40 but around 0 is fairly common for a few months. I specifically tested blankets during winter and couldn't tell you warm up or engine temp was any different with or without.

I run Levis blanket on my LB7 with mod stock DTS turbo. Super happy with it. I have his up-pipe blankets too

I have one of Levi's socks on the s375. It cut down underhood temps dramatically and I noticed the turbo is more responsive. Gotta order some up pipe blankets next!

Levi is awesome! i bought a used stock turbo blanket from Travis and Levi had Travis send it to him first before he sent it off to me so he could fix some little loose ends that were coming off and re-paint if for me. Now i need to just buck up and get me a s475 blanket to really keep all the heat down!

I have Levi's blankets on my turbo, up pipes, and down pipe. Under hood temperatures are unbelievable! I will start my truck with frost on the hood, warm it up, drive 30 minutes to work, park, and the frost won't have melted. Stock, it would be melted above the turbo in 5 minutes, tops.

I ordered his blankets at the same time as the rest of my upgrades, and his were the first parts to arrive... by 3 days! Wish everyone worked like that!

I've got his turbo and up pipe blankets as well. As everybody says he's great to work with and a stand up guy, great to talk about random stuff with too.

I still need to install my blankets :mad:
