Default What turbo blanket for a BW s475???

I have been looking around at turbo blankets. It appears you can spend $50-$150. Also i have been told that the BW turbos have a bigger hot side so i am wondering which ones fit a T4 S475

I got a t4 blanket off of frozen boost. Its fits well but irs not long enough. A t6 one should work better for it I think

BlackGMC,

I just ordered a Godspeed T6 blanket off ebay for $60 shipped for my S475 T4. I was talking with Kyle (KB) yesterday when I picked up my kit and he told me had an ebay one on his and it was doing just fine. I could not justify spending 2x on a PTP blanket.

I have run the PTP blanket. It didn't last as long as I thought a $150 turbo blanket should... My ebay turbo blanket worked great.

I have that same godspeed blanket...its kind of crumbling from the heat but works decently. No way I would spend $200 on a blanket.

Yep, the ebay T6 blanket I mentioned above nearly perfectly fits the T4 S475.
