"cooling the turbo reduces its efficiency." I have read about that before. My main concern is to not let the heat sit and cook the cowling. AS sells several types of heat blanket material, some of which is adhesive backed, rated up to 2000 degrees and seem like it would work to keep the cowling

Orma, I just had a "brain fart" on your turbo cooling issues. While an insulating sheild of some sort will protect the imediate area, there is still the issue of trapped heat in the rest of the cowling. A better solution IMHO is a simple "trap door" that is held closed by the flow of cooling
