i have a 91 non-ic cummins and was wondering if wrapping my turbo would have an advantage as far as boost goes or not? any input is great!!! thnak you

 

advantages for boost? i don't think so. it will help eliminate some of the heat under the hood due to the exhaust, but it will not increase boost any..... as far as i know

 

okay i figured that. i had a teacher tell me in college that it would help. i guess he was bullshitting me

 

Where can I purchase the wrap for the turbo? My cousin was telling me today I need to do this. I'm interested in keeping some of the heat off my A/C box in my F350 swap. It is only a few inches away at most.

 

i agree with benjamin.the only thing you wrap them for is to protect things on the outside from burning up

 

geno's garage has it i'm pretty sure

 

Theoretically it'll help you make more boost; more heat will be utilized by the turbo instead of going under the hood. In practice, however, I would imagine that the largest benefit would be reduction of under-hood temperatures.

 

Heat is energy that cant be used to operate the turbo, so wraping it will be an improvment, enough to notice? Maybe maybe not.

 

well i would be interested in knowing if it makes a differece that a person can tell i dont think but i could be wrong wouldnt be the 1st time

 

Some swear by it.
