Can you post up some detailed pictures, possibly with dimensions?? I don't have that turbo, but might be able to rig it onto my setup.

HahahahahaI thought this was a group buy for blankets with a giant turbo printed on them. I thought to myself, I would totally turbocharge bedtime.  I wish I had a giant turbo that needed a blanket.

that would be cool to have NICO logo on it LOL, but it has to be a special high carbon thread that won't burn out.

ok, finally got a hold of a camera and here are the pictures, enjoy!!!! 
A T61 (61-1, .68a/r rear) turbo with the silver & black on; it clears the 3" (with extra room) vband turbine
 The black one allow a bit more room for larger turbo,s it barely fit on this huge HX52 (not quite a GT42, but it's pretty big, the black one just barely covering the 16CM turbine, i recommend the T6 version though.)

I don't want one, but I would use it if I was in the market. IMO it looks like a great piece that will significantly reduce underhood temps as well as improve lag slightly. I'd wrap my DP and mani as well...I'd be interested in a before and after dyno, bet you get 20whp out a fully wrapped system. WD

if you 're running an hx40 top mount, it will fit just fine, because the black one covers my hx52 ok..

Unfortunately, I can barely fit a credit card in there. It's the gap between the valve cover and ex housing that's the problem. Before anybody comments, I've had this sucker glowing orange enough to read off of at night, have the exact same car paint on the valve covers that's on the fenders, and that paint still looks like the day it was sprayed. Can the make one special with no padding in one spot?

you might be able to rotate the turbo blanket to cover the top side, but that is definitely very tight.

what turbine A/R size is your gt40... ? i'll put you down for the silver one. i recommend the black one, since the black one is slightly larger.

What are you trying to say  Would it be practical to buy a smaller one that wouldn't cover the whole ex housing to fix my situation? Probaly look half assed, huh? Maybe take a pic of a smaller one on the HX52 just to see please?
