What brand heatshield is it? And I know what a blanket is, but what is a turbo beenie? I'm interested if the brand/price is right.

Guys, By registering as "Interested", there is no commitment to buy this. You'll simply get updates on pricing and info as we receive it. Once we get the final details, you'll be given the opportunity to join as "Committed". Hope this clears things up.

i am interested but I am not about to go sign up on that website. I recommend you host the group-buy through iwsti instead if possible

also you should post some general pricing guide on how many people would strike what kind of deal, this could attract more potential buyers

I am very interested in this as it looks like a quality product.... but I honestly need more info about the turbo blanket than "just join the group buy"... (e.g. how much heat it can withstand..... what material its made of.... is the flame proof....fitment.... durability....any special features...) things like that.....

If you could provide a little more infos, I think there ll be a lot more interests.....

Guys, As per your request I've updated the details about the Beenie. I've listed the specifications, manufacture, and the fitment.

Click here for details on group buy.

Can you negotiate a better deal, I know someone got their beenie with a "offer price" that's lower than his given group buy price. Office him $100 shipped for 10 people or more.

5= free individual shipping
10= free shipping + 10% discount
20= free shipping + 15% discount

That is what he gave me and he seems to be following that. $125 @10% discount=$112 shipped, exactly equal to the price you quosted "$102.50 plus $10 shipping". Honestly, if a groupbuy with 10 people only gets 10% it is not worth the time.

Guys, is a TD04 much smaller than the VF-39? AFAIK both are "small" turbos and the beanie should fit both, right?

What about fitting a Deadbolt SZ55 turbo? Does it fit that? Or is this a "universal" kit?
