Funk Motorsport | Industry-Leading Heat Management Solutions
Driven by quality, innovation, and reliability. At Chicane Australia, we provide specialised supply for Funk Motorsport. As pioneers in thermal insulation, Funk Motorsport delivers high-performance heat management designed to increase reliability and performance on both road and track. We facilitate fast sourcing and reliable delivery across Australia for their elite range of turbo blankets, reflective barriers, and heat sleeving.
The Science of Funk Heat Management
Funk Motorsport has redefined the standard for thermal protection with their signature 4-layer construction. Unlike single-use alternatives, their Mk3 Turbo Blankets are designed for exceptional durability, allowing for removal during routine maintenance without falling apart. By containing heat within the exhaust housing, these components keep the surrounding engine bay significantly cooler while accelerating exhaust gas flow—resulting in faster turbo spool and more consistent power delivery.
Our sourcing capabilities cover the flagship Funk Motorsport range:
• Mk3 Turbo Blankets: Available in Titanium, Carbon Fibre, and "Inside-Out" finishes. Perfect for the BMW M2/M3/M4 (S55/S58), Toyota GR Yaris, and Volkswagen Golf R (EA888).
• Gold & Silver Reflective Tape: High-performance barriers capable of reflecting up to 80% of radiant heat, ideal for intake pipes and bulkheads on Subaru WRX/STI and Mazda MX-5 builds.
• Lava Rock Titanium Exhaust Wrap: A vital component for retaining heat within headers and downpipes on high-torque builds like the Ford Barra and Nissan SR20/RB engines.
• Component Specific Protection: Specialised blankets for wastegates, starter motors, and brake reservoirs to prevent vapour lock and electrical failure in extreme racing conditions.
Based on the Central Coast, NSW, we provide the technical expertise to assist you in selecting the right thermal barrier for your specific engine bay layout. We work closely with our supply network to ensure your authentic Funk Motorsport hardware is sourced and despatched with professional care and speed.
Funk Motorsport FAQ
What is the benefit of a 'Inside-Out' Turbo Blanket?
The Inside-Out blanket is a Funk Motorsport innovation designed for applications where the turbo is extremely close to another heat source, such as a manifold. While standard blankets only insulate from the inside, the Inside-Out version features heat-resistant material on both faces to handle external heat exposure.
Will a turbo blanket damage my turbocharger?
No. High-quality blankets like those from Funk Motorsport are designed to keep the heat within the turbine housing, which is where it belongs for maximum efficiency. This actually helps to lower the temperature of the compressor side (cold side), improving overall engine performance.
How quickly can you source Funk Motorsport products?
We utilise a robust international and local supply network to provide the fastest possible turnaround. Most Mk3 Turbo Blankets and reflective tapes for popular performance platforms are sourced and despatched within a short timeframe for delivery across Australia.
