Whats turbo blanket for BNR Stage 4?

I want to get a turbo blanket for my BNR stage 4 turbo. I've searched all over the place and can't find a good answer on what size to use, whether they would even be compatible with the internal wastegate configuration.

Also, what is a good brand of turbo blanket? I've heard that DEI's will burn off in a few weeks, but they now have a "titanium" one that is rated for higher heat. Is that any better? I have heard good things about PTP turbo blankets, but I hate Protech Performance, the company that makes them, more than anything else in the world and would rather not do business with them (they ran me around on a rebuild for 4+ months and I still lost out on over a grand in deposit money.) I have heard that Gotham Racing's is good as well. Are they any other good options?

Thanks!

I have a BNR Stage 4. I bought this turbo blanket... I actually forgot to give them the size of my turbo. The one they sent me fits perfectly, though.

Turbo Beenie/Turbo Blanket

Works awesome!

How long have you had it? Also, what size did you get? Medium?

I've had it for a few years now. Still looks great, and works VERY well. That's the thing... I cannot remember the size they sent me. I would think they would have sent me a medium. When I bought it, they were a bit more expensive. The price now is VERY reasonable. Send them your turbo specs and they will send you the correct size. You can't go wrong with this blanket.

What bums me out is that I purchased mine for $135 shipped, back in 2007. Now they're $68 shipped. lol

Do you guys have any update on how you beanie/blanket has performed over the years?

Also the ebay link is broken now. Do you perhaps have the seller and make /model /szie info from the sale still in email archive?
