Funk Motorsport BMW B58 Turbo Blanket fitting guide (BMW M140i, 340i, Toyota Supra turbo blanket)

This is the latest in our "Turbo Blanket fitment guide" series. This week we are looking at the BMW B58 Turbo blankets, which are designed to fit BMW M140i, BMW 340i, BMW 540i, BMW Z4 M40i, BMW X3 40i, BMW X4 40i, Toyota Supra
These blankets can be found here:

The BMW B58 Turbo Jacket has been designed around the all new Mk3. Turbo blanket, which has been recently developed and launched by Funk Motorsport. These have been designed with massively increased durability and improved insulation, to allow these to perform 2-3 times better than our mk2 turbo blanket, as well as all other models on the market.
Want to see how powerful these blankets are? Watch this video as you see how powerful our turbo blankets can be - with a barehand placed onto the blanket - WHILE THE SKYLINE IS RUNNING ON A DYNO (Don’t try this at home). You will also see multiple removals and an impressive heat reduction on the surface of the blanket!

A Funk Motorsport turbo blanket can help to:
- Reduce Air Intake Temperatures, resulting in higher performance and more consistent performance figures.
- Improve spool-up times of your turbo.
- Lower Engine bay temperatures.
- Improve reliability of surrounding components in the engine bay

I need a video on how to install with turbo on the car

[@Nico_440i]

That would be quite nice to see how to do it when the turbo and the manifold are still built-in. I guess this is another story than having the assembly ready on a desk in front of you… 😉

[@thomasholdsworth2422]

Ordered mine, along with a boat load of other thermal management bits 👍🏻 Will be interesting to see the results.

[@Funkmotorsport]

Look forward to seeing it fitted to your car!

[@thomasholdsworth2422]

@@Funkmotorsport Me too! Hopefully the re-design doesn't take too long 🤞🏻

[@RpgeeX]

Ordered mine after this clip, how was the installation going for ya ?

[@Addselwyn]

That looks amazing

[@1spoolg20_b58s]

The hot side blanket is ok with the wastegate arm ?

[@kevin-jm3qb]

Really don't like the way the the springs make contact with the wastegate linkage. Any type of work around for this?

[@Funkmotorsport]

Great question. In some instances, people choose to use mechanic lockwire on the tighter areas. This is much lower profile, and can work well to deal with the concerns you are worried about. We hope this helps, and look forward to answering any other questions that you may have. Funk Motorsport

omg i know British are savage , you just ignored the part of gloves

[@timkaiser1751]

Any data how this application holds up over time? Any run one regularly for a few year's?

[@samoualx]

Is the o2 sensor need to removed?... its very tight

[@suprola7961]

What do I order for a 2020 Supra?

[@Peaceable75]

I was just looking for one of these for my Supra.👍🏾

[@chriskamen2152]

will it fit over a DAW Flowmax turbo?

[@aleksandarvukovic2525]

Did you need to replace the gasket or could you just reassemble it with original gasket?

[@Funkmotorsport]

Turbo removal is NOT required. so you shouldn't need a new gasket! We hope this helps.
