Default Best Available Turbo Blanket?

Meaning, which are the most durable? I underestimated the heat given off by my turbo/uppipe. Recommendations for durable heat wrap would also be appreciated. TIA

I used DEI for all my heat wrap but I wasn't about to shell out $200+ for their blanket. I have the PTP blanket and it's held up fine for the last 3500 miles. I can actually touch it after a long drive and not get burned.

+1 on PTP. Used one on my Subaru Legacy Turbo with a GT28-type turbo. Fitment and functionality was excellent! They sell multiple colors and are reasonably priced. Considering going this round on my S2K but may not have enough room with a bottom mount turbo.

Will those work on a SC as well to help with heat soak?

I use the dei titanium series blanket and wrap. Looks like carbon Kevlar. I've also driven around for several miles and touched it without burning my hand. Fits perfect and looks great, little pricey.

My ptp turned to dust in about 1500 miles. Try'd a 50$ cheapo that lasted about the same. Gonna try dei next. Ive heard t1's blankets are good as well.

I am sending parts to get wrapped by ATP. Its expensive, but proven to keep temps down.
