Is this sale still going on? Will it fit the GT2560?

Kelly 01-18-2007 11:38 AM

Just call up Alamo. Yes it will fit fine.

You can call them at 817-860-4300 and reference the "Kelly Deal" for the turbo blankets.

How do you know Brice ( Alamo )?? I get all my stuff from him.

Kelly 01-19-2007 10:20 PM

I don't know him personally. I bought a turbo blanket for my Miata there a year and a half ago. I figured I would set something up for the guys here. From talking to him on a phone a couple times he seems like a nice guy.

ray_sir_6 01-20-2007 12:43 PM

Yeah, he is great. I get great deals from him, which includes the Greddy Turbo Kit I have on the Miata.

Where are the turbo blankets???
 
I cannot seem to find that turbo blanket on alamomotorsports.com. Can you give me the link please..
Serge
Thanks

Kelly 01-26-2007 03:42 AM

Thats because you have to call them and order it. Its not listed on the site.

sergei 01-26-2007 09:54 AM

Anybody tried it with an internal wastegate??
Will it work?
I have a GT28R (2560) with an internal wastegate.
Thanks
Serge

Are there any pictures with one on a GT28 internal WG?

y8s 03-01-2007 12:00 PM

I'll try to remember this weekend... I'll take one for you, but I dont use the internal gate on mine. It's the potato turbine housing welded shut. You *might* have issues with the rod. It's pretty big on there.

trito 03-07-2007 08:26 PM

Anyone got this on their Greddy turbo yet?

:skid: Turbo 3.0 VR6 Mmmmmm :drool: MKIII looks like?

Kelly 04-27-2007 11:35 PM

Yup.....MKIII. We have a crew of 4 of us that all have boosted Vr6 MKIII's in my area.


Also the blanket fits over a 16g turbo with ease. Just made a little slit for the actuator rod. Works perfectly. It should fit all internally wastegated turbos with the same mod.

SKMetalworks 05-23-2007 11:47 PM

ordering one now. WOT promised that if it doesnt fit perfectly he himself will come put it on =) sounds like a deal to me:bigtu: (BTW greddy td04h

demetri 06-23-2007 08:04 PM

These still available? Is there online ordering or do we need to call them in?

Kelly 06-23-2007 11:42 PM

Call the number listed in the first post and they will take care of you

spike 06-24-2007 02:50 AM

For the people that have this,how well does this blanket work? and are there any fitment and function issues with turbos running a internal wastegate?

y8s 06-24-2007 09:50 AM

I imagine you'd have issues with an internal wastegate. This thing sits pretty snug over the housing.

super huge pic: http://gallery.y8s.com/d/17047-1/DSC02741.JPG

You can see it pretty much fits down around the CHRA so I'm not sure where you'd run the WG actuator rod...

spike 06-24-2007 12:02 PM

Thanks for the picture y8s.Does anyone else run one of these blankets with an internal wastegate? I would really like to know if it will work before I shellout that kind of money on this item.

Kelly 06-24-2007 01:28 PM

Rob at Flipside is running one on his internally gated 16g. He just made a small slit for the actuator rod and it works fine. Even better is how cool his brake fluid reservoir stays now.
