Turbo Beanies
 
Morning all,

First post back in a long while, PC at work would never load this site or its posts properly however, all that is now fixed :)

As we are slowly starting to come back into some warmer weather I thought now would be a great time to finally do something about my sti not running any form of heat shield around the turbo.

Has a td06-20g and was wondering if anyone else has had success with turbo beanies on this size turbo, if so which ones/brands in particular?

Any pics and info would be great. They seem to be pretty generic in regards to fitment and unfortunately I have no experience with them.

Cheers,


Shaun

Can you trim down an oem heat shield and get it to fit over the turbo?

Mine fits over the dom-1.5 easily. Not sure how big yours is though.

Unfortunately I don't have one laying around. Good idea though!

If I get super stuck and have no other choice I will hunt around for one. I would imagine I would need to cut and shut it in several places to get it to work though. I am a little OCD like that.

Think I found a decent turbo blanket though. RSD claims it fits 18G and 20G turbos well.

I have a perrin turbo blanky and a cusco turbo heatshield for sale if you want. Turbo blanky is pretty cooked, but will still hold together. Shield is SS and in VGC. I cant say for sure they will fit that exact turbo, but ive had em both on a 18g and on a dom 2.5 no worries. Pm to discuss.

Pm if interested.

Overwhelming response. Will send some PM's boys, Cheers!

I have a 08+Cobb heat shield I was going to fit myself.
Does anyone know if it will go on a VF52 without modification?
Just after a heads up before I start.

It attaches to a bracket on the downpipe. The VF52 should fit easily under it given it is an oem turbo.

Cool, thanks.
