    Hello, I have a 40 Sundancer with qsb 380’s. Would you guys recommend the use of a turbo blanket? What are the cons and pros. I know it makes the turbo more efficient.

    Of  zero need  or value, and it will not do anything as to improving efficiency ..

    You have COOLANT COOLED turbos.

     

    Worry about things that really matter and can make a  measurable difference,  both short & long term.

    –Fresh water flushing

    –Oil pan heaters

    –Proper & timely aftercooler servicing

    –Proper engine loading

    –Keeping your engine room dry &  “spic & span” top to bottom
