Torque Solution Volcanic Rock Thermal Downpipe Blanket - 2017-2021 Honda Civic Type R FK8 / 2022+ Civic Type R FL5

The Torque Solution volcanic rock thermal downpipe blanket is custom-fitted for the FK8 and FL5 Civic Type R factory or aftermarket downpipe to drastically reduce under-hood temperatures, protect surrounding components, and improve turbo efficiency by keeping exhaust heat inside the downpipe. Constructed from pulverized lava rock fiber with a stainless steel mesh outer layer and high-temperature silica contact layer, this blanket withstands 1800°F direct / 2500°F radiant heat while remaining flexible and easy to install.

Key Features

  • Volcanic Rock Fiber Construction: Pulverized lava rock inner layer for extreme heat resistance up to 1800°F direct / 2500°F radiant.
  • Stainless Mesh Reinforcement: Adds durability and prevents tearing during installation/removal.
  • Silica Contact Layer: Protects the blanket from oil and moisture.
  • Custom Fit: Tailored specifically for FK8/FL5 Type R downpipe (fits factory and most aftermarket 3" downpipes).
  • Stainless Steel Springs & Wire: Included for secure fitment.
  • Reduces Underhood Temps: Lowers IATs and protects wiring, hoses, and carbon parts.
  • Made in USA: Designed and manufactured by Torque Solution.

Product Notes

  • Part number: TS-TB-659L (Lava rock version).
  • Fits both LHD and RHD models.
  • Compatible with factory downpipe and most 3" aftermarket downpipes (minor trimming may be required on some).

Forced Induction

Forced Induction

Forced induction systems encompass every method of pushing air into an engine at greater than atmospheric pressure, including turbochargers driven by exhaust energy, superchargers driven mechanically by the crankshaft, and prochargers using centrifugal designs belt-driven at higher ratios than traditional roots-type blowers, with each approach delivering a significant increase in air mass per cylinder fill that allows proportionally more fuel to be burned and more power to be produced without increasing engine displacement. Adding 10 PSI of boost pressure to a naturally aspirated engine can increase power output by 50 to 70 percent depending on the engine's breathing efficiency and the quality of the supporting hardware, making forced induction the most power-dense modification available relative to cost and complexity. This collection covers complete forced induction systems, turbocharger and supercharger hardware, intercoolers, blow-off valves, wastegates, and supporting component...

Turbo Blankets for Vehicle Turbocharger Cooling

Turbo Blankets for Vehicle Turbocharger Cooling

Turbo blankets wrap around the turbine housing of a turbocharger to contain radiated heat, reducing underhood temperatures and protecting surrounding components including wiring harnesses, brake lines, and intake piping from heat soak. Maintaining lower underhood temperatures improves intake charge density and reduces wear on heat-sensitive engine bay components. Popular Turbo Blanket Options Popular turbo blanket materials include lava rock fiber in a stainless steel mesh shell, titanium fiber blankets for the highest heat containment, and basalt fiber designs balancing thermal performance with cost. Popular brands include Heatshield Products, DEI (Design Engineering), Thermo-Tec, and Mishimoto. Most universal-fit blankets accommodate T3 and T4 turbo housings in standard sizes, while vehicle-specific blankets are available for popular factory turbocharged platforms. Do turbo blankets improve performance? Turbo blankets reduce heat soak of the intake charge by limiting radiated heat...
