Post Turbo temps

recently had my MY00 tdo4 remapped to tek 3, so putting out 282bhp/336 lbt
so will the turbo run "hotter"? on full boost etc. as wondering about one of these turbo blankets to cut down heatsoak to the topmount.

cheers

336ft lbs is a lot of torque froma 2 litre with a TDo4.
The turbo may run a little hotter as it is working harder but the important thing is to ensure AFR and EGT are correct.
A turbo heat blanket retains heat in the turbo so it can spool quicker and it will also help reduce under bonnet temperatures.
On full chat, EGTs are typically around 900 deg C.

Harvey,
Bob rawle was very impressed with the results when he mapped this a few weeks ago, said it was holding boost a lot longer than most tdo4's he'd seen.

cheers ray t
