Turbo blankets are really good, and they also help turbo response believe it or not:

I got some of that Nimbus G11 heatshield stuff for my saph from Merlin Motorsport.

Very easy to work with, shaping and forming it was a doddle!

Here's a pic of the one I made. Whether it's your kind of thing, I don't know but it's another option!



P.S. Ignore the different coloured tanks, they will both be black eventually!!
