I was sceptical.....
But after much whinging from a couple of mates i have fitted a PTP T3 style turbo blanket to my classic.
And stone me they dont half work well! Temps underbonnet are well down and there is a genuine increase in response lower down the revs nothing drastic but it is noticable, i did a couple of low rpm pulls with and then the next day once cool without and there is a genuine improvement.
The quality is very nice aswell, seems nicely built.
Got a bit paranoid though as they smoke quite a bit when first fitted!
Highly recommended!

They are quality for sure, I was able to touch the turbo jacket and not burn my hand even after a 30 min of spirited driving!

modern turbos are both water and oil cooled and are designed to be at the extreme end of heat, i cant see any realistic negatives for a good quality turbo blanket tbh.
