BorgWarner Airwerks Turbine Housing S510C

This is the BorgWarner Airwerks S510C turbine housing, part number 178498. It's a key component for building or upgrading a high-performance turbocharger system, specifically designed to work with the S510 turbocharger frame. If you're putting together a custom setup or replacing a worn-out housing on a compatible turbo, this part is built to handle serious airflow and heat.

The S510C housing is constructed from a durable cast iron material, chosen for its ability to withstand the extreme temperatures and pressures found in forced induction applications. This particular housing features a T6 inlet flange and a 1.32 A/R ratio, which is a common setup for applications looking for strong mid-range to top-end power. The A/R ratio influences how quickly the turbo spools and where in the RPM range it makes peak boost, so this 1.32 A/R is generally suited for larger displacement engines or those aiming for higher horsepower targets where a bit more lag is acceptable in exchange for maximum flow.

When installing a turbine housing like this, it's important to ensure proper mating surfaces with the turbine wheel and the exhaust manifold. Cleanliness and the use of appropriate hardware are crucial for a leak-free seal and optimal performance. Remember that this housing is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed guidance.
