if you care - the cheap way to retain turbo heat : buy 2 like sized stainless pots, a roll of heat wrap, large rivits and matching washers pot one: cut to fit so it wraps as far around the turbo as possible - easy enough pot two: cut the botom off so all you have left is the straight sidewalls heat wrap, cut into strips long enought to line the inside of pot one, go double layers. if the last row at the top of the pot is to wide, fold one strip of heat wrap in half and temporarily sew it together lay out a rivit patern on the outside of pot one, keep it neat and orderly stack the heat wrap inside pot one, slide pot 2 inside, clamp, drill holes, rivit together, clean up any overlap of heat wrap and trim the inner pot if need be for a neat appearance optional: install setup on turbo, then use one of the pots lids to create a filler piece around the center section to tidy everything up, retain to pots w/ either screws or rivits ---

A Turbo Blanket is the best route for heat insulation other than a coating like Jet Hot. ---
