The blankets will fit a turbo without paint. I was skeptical at first but it worked out :roflmao:

Do they keep noise down at all? It doesn't make too much sense but I figured any fabric will absorb sound

Actually yes. Not on turbo whistle but engine noise. I've been doing full kits (manifold/up-pipes/turbo sock) on 7.3 Powerstroke engines for awhile and it's a considerable difference in engine noise on those clattering things. Just a turbo blanket alone doesn't tend to make a noticeable noise difference though.

Now that you say that, my truck was noticeably quiter with the header blankets. Seemed to take some of the valve train noise out. I was just thinking of the turbo blanket.

You get the twins on yet?

Nope, had a few other odds and ends that needed to be buttoned up first. Replacing all the brake lines in the truck along with some other parts so the motor is still on the stand. Twins will be the last part to go on.

I'm here! $90 for a non-gated S400. If you're on the website it's the T3 T4 Non-Gated Turbo Sock. If you're running an unusually large or small exhaust housing, just let me know and I can adjust blanket size to fit. Give me a shout if you have any questions about them.



Thanks Damian. :hug: Hope to finally catch up at Diesels on the Mountain if you're going to be there.

No prob buddy! I haven't decided. I really want to be there for the first NHRDA event in Denver at Bandimere. Truck Fest not so much as I'm not into pulling or dyno. Are you going to race?

Planning on it as long as I don't hit a major snag with the truck. Won't be chassis cert'd or have my NHRA license yet so I'll probably just run 11.90 and brackets.
