ATP turbine housing heat shields
TWINS TURBO is proud to introduce real race bred turbine heat shields to
the public. We came into contact with Advance Thermal Products through our
friends in the American Le Mans series. We noticed the factory Audi teams
were using extraordinarily high quality heat shields for their turbine
housings. We found out that cart also uses the same heat shields for their
turbos as well. Traditionally we have been very hesitant in using the heat
shields currently available on the market due to their low quality and poor
fitment.
We had Advanced Thermal Products makes heat shields for us and are now
going to offer this technology to the public for the first time. These heat
shields are rated to withstand temperatures of 3000 degrees Fahrenheit. The
idea behind using heat shields is to keep the heat trapped in the turbine
housing to help using all of the available exhaust energy to move the
turbine wheel. This will promote better response and spool up. As a side
bonus, the heat shields help to reduce underhood temperatures by a huge
amount, which makes them ideal for street use. the heat shields are a
direct bolt on.
Cart teams pay $650.00 per heat shield.
Twins Turbo price per heat shield $325.00
Current application: T-4 series tangential turbine housing with V-band
clamp .70 A/R and .81 A/R.
Other applications currently under development call for your particular
application. If you require a custom application, please call us for
detail.
