eBay Motors: Ford Powerstroke 6.0 Black Turbo Sock Faster Spool Up!! (item 290287166743 end time Jan-14-09 17:38:43 PST)

i could see it keeping under hood temps down a bit but actually increasing mileage? if there was, probably nothing you would ever notice. especially for 115 dollars. i do, however, like to be proven wrong on things like this cause then i can buy one after!

I dont know if ot will help. I know a lot of our heavy engines, mainly our Detroit 8V92's all have turbo "socks"

Summit has a turbo wrap kit as well but I don't think it's that much. Might check that out.

I think its a bunch of chit. But someone should prove me wrong.

The Turbo Sock helps control radiant heat, spools turbo faster and makes cooler intake air temperatures which results in more horsepower and torque. You will notice an instant difference after you install the Turbo Sock. These do work, buy one, and if you don't like it, call me, you can ship the blanket back within 3 weeks of date of purchase and i'll refund your money, minus shipping.

I highly doubt it would be worth the $$$$ but who knows..

Looks like BS to me. Looks like it would actually raise EGT's because its holding it against the turbo. And how could wrapping the turbo make it spool faster.

I bet it works real good (@ removing $115 from wallets).

Keeping the heat in the exhaust system from the manifold through the up pipe and turbo will certainly help with spool time. How much help I would expect to see just with a turbo sock? I would expect better results by eliminating the EGR scoop in the up pipe. A zoodad mod will do more for lowering intake air temps. Just MHO.

Interesting, but 115 bones for a sock?,,, I'll keep em on my feet
