Description
The Mishimoto Turbo Blanket, part number MMHP-TB-T3, is a purpose-built gold heat shield sized for T3-frame turbochargers, wrapping your turbo in a molded, one-piece performance-grade barrier engineered specifically to fight forced induction heat soak. Built from a volcanic lava rock outer layer paired with a 96-percent silica fiber inner layer, this turbo blanket is rated to withstand 1800F direct heat and 2000F radiant heat on the exterior while its interior can handle temperatures up to 2300F.
Every forced induction system generates significant heat at the turbocharger, and that heat can radiate through the engine bay, raising intake air temperatures and stressing nearby components. The Mishimoto Turbo Blanket is designed to contain that heat at the source, helping keep surrounding hoses, wiring, and induction components cooler. As a universal-fit part, this T3-sized blanket suits any turbocharged forced induction setup running a turbo within the T3 size range, making it a practical upgrade for builders looking to manage under-hood temperatures without redesigning their entire induction system.
Vehicle Applications
This Mishimoto Turbo Blanket is a universal-fit product rather than a vehicle-specific kit, so it is not tied to a single make or model. It is sized for turbochargers that fall into the T3 category, with Mishimoto’s sizing guidance placing T3-frame turbos in the 5-inch to 6-inch range; larger or smaller turbos are covered by Mishimoto’s separate T25/T28, T4, and T6 blanket sizes. Because of this universal, size-based fitment, the blanket can be installed on a wide range of turbocharged forced induction engines that use a T3 turbo.
