What blankets are you guys using?

Im currently shopping around for one.

I've used a DEI in the past with great results. If it matters that was on a rotated turbo in my old STI

PTP Lava is the best in my research. I am running one:

I like PTP as well.

Whats the size of FB's turbo?

King Tut · 07-29-2013, 07:38 PM

I got a T3 one.

Wonderbar · 07-29-2013, 07:50 PM

Either of those. ^

I'm going to pick up a lava for my 3.8L eclipse since my turbo/manifold is pretty tight in there now.

DEI

Frsprince · 07-30-2013, 01:31 AM

im using dei! its great!

jamesm · 07-30-2013, 09:43 AM

turns out mine came from treadstone performance. it was something like $90. i couldn't imagine how hot it would get under the hood without it.

What impact does a blanket have on the temp of the air going into the intercooler/engine?

86_ZN6 · 07-31-2013, 10:54 AM

Just ordered a Ptp T28 lava

Thanks for all the comments guys
