I have on on my low mount dont see why they shouldnt work but they are usually on high mounts for convenience issues.

So i think you should have no problems with one but id someone says otherwise on here, then take their word over mine. i recomend you get a ceramic laced one instead of the other materiels they usually offer (cant think of what its called atm). btw, im no pro- this is purely from experience pinch.gif

You can barely see the low mount :P Especially a tiny little stock turbo haha.

I had the stock shielding on my old stocker, but painted it up with some nice glossy black paint. Looked the part, and dont have to worry about the possibility of a fire if theres an oil leak onto the blanket.

Not 100% sure on the fitment of them, as i was looking for one for my GT30, but i struggled to find one that would accommodate an internal wastegate. They all seem to have tiny rears on them for external setups :(

If you get one, go quality. Theres nothing worse than chucking cheap flammable material on the turbo haha. "Cool Turbo Blankets" on Ebay have great reviews and a lifetime guarantee.

+ 1 for stock shield just paint it will look good. half the purpos of highflowing a turbo is for the stock look with power will also help keep the popo away. they wont see a aftermaket part and think what else does he have in his import

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
