Choose options
The Torque Solution Thermal Downpipe Elbow Blanket is designed to protect critical components near the turbocharger by reducing radiant heat from the hot downpipe area. By containing heat within the exhaust system, this blanket helps lower under-bonnet temperatures, reduce turbo lag, and improve overall engine efficiency.
Constructed with a high-temperature wire mesh core, multiple insulated fibreglass layers, and a durable outer shell, this blanket provides excellent thermal resistance while maintaining a clean, professional appearance. Available in both Volcanic Rock and Carbon Fibre finishes.
