The COBB turbo blanket is a must - have for your Subaru. It's a direct fit for EJ turbo Subarus from 2002 - 2014 WRX, 2004 - 2021 STI, 2004 - 2013 Forester XT, 2005 - 2009 Legacy GT, and 2005 - 2009 Outback XT. This blanket insulates the turbine housing, preventing exhaust energy loss and boosting turbo RPM acceleration. You'll experience faster turbo spool and quicker access to peak torque. It also protects neighboring parts from heat soak. The outer layer is made of fragmentized fire - retardant volcanic rock, rated for 1500°F direct heat and 1800°F radiant heat. Internally, it's insulated with high - temperature calcium magnesium silicate wool, and the inner layer can handle 1800°F direct heat and 2300°F peak heat. Installation requires intermediate effort, and an installation guide is included. By using this turbo blanket, you can limit heat transfer to the engine bay, extend the life of under - hood components, lower intake temperatures, and enhance your car's response.
Using the COBB turbo blanket is straightforward. First, follow the included installation guide. It requires an intermediate level of effort, so if you're not confident, it might be a good idea to get a professional to install it. Once installed, the blanket will start working right away to keep your turbocharger and engine bay in good condition. As for maintenance, check the blanket regularly for any signs of wear and tear. If you notice any damage to the outer or inner layers, it might be time to replace the blanket. Also, make sure to keep it clean from dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals when cleaning it, as this could damage the insulation. With proper use and maintenance, your COBB turbo blanket will serve you well for a long time.
