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.

Hahahahaha

I 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.

Agreed.. but I thought these were OFFICAL NICO TURBO BLANKETS....

so it would say NICO on them.
