– Manages Turbo Heat withTitanium-like
Strength and Durability
Avon Lake, Ohio (April 5, 2011) – Turbochargers
generate a lot of heat and without protection and can potentially affect
under-the-hood components and overall turbo performance. Now there is a way to manage excessive turbo
heat in the turbine housing and related radiant heat under the hood with DEI’s
new T25/T28 Titanium™ Turbo Shield with LR™ Technology. Much like DEI’s T3, T4, and T6 shields, the T25/T28
handles direct continuous heat in the turbine up to 1800°F (980°C), and up to 2500°F (1370°C) of radiant heat. The T25/T28 Titanium Turbo Shield combines two
highly effective insulators - pulverized lava rock, extruded into fibers then
woven into a tight weave, and high temperature rated silica insulation padding,
to provide the ultimate protection against extreme heat.
This improvement in
under-hood thermal management helps keep more heat inside the turbo to assist
in faster spool-up while reducing radiant temperature. The result is cooler air
intake temperatures for improved performance and a boost in horsepower.

Less heat circulating
in the engine bay also means reducing the chances of “heat soak” conditions on
vital under-hood components. The T25/T28 Turbo Shield's ability to reduce under-hood
temperature also assists in eliminating heat transfer to a vehicle’s interior
for overall ride comfort.
Custom engineered to
fit the T25 and other OEM turbos with integral wastegates, the new T25/T28
Turbo Shield supports a multitude of applications neglected by other
manufactures. Anchoring hooks have been
incorporated and strategically located on the shield as a way for fastening it
securely to the turbine housing. The T25/T28
Turbo Shield has a cool carbon fiber look, and is sold separately or as a kit
that includes a 2 inch wide by 15 foot roll of Titanium down pipe wrap, two 14
inch stainless steel locking ties, and 5 feet of fastening wire. Everything is included for a quick and simple
install.
