Product Details

This is the BorgWarner S300SX3 turbo cartridge, part number 176635. It's built around a 60mm compressor wheel and a 66mm turbine wheel, making it a popular choice for custom turbocharger builds where you're looking to upgrade from a smaller factory turbo or build a more powerful setup from scratch. This cartridge is the heart of a turbocharger, containing the compressor and turbine wheels along with their associated housings, and it's designed to be installed into a compatible turbocharger frame.

BorgWarner is well-known for its robust forced induction components, and this S300SX3 cartridge is no exception. It's constructed with durable materials to handle the high temperatures and pressures found in a turbo system. The 60mm compressor wheel is designed for efficient airflow, helping to increase boost pressure and improve engine performance, while the 66mm turbine wheel is sized to spool up effectively without excessive lag in many applications. This specific cartridge is often chosen by enthusiasts looking to achieve a balance between responsive power delivery and significant airflow for higher horsepower goals.

When undertaking a custom turbo build, selecting a reliable cartridge like this BorgWarner unit is crucial. It's designed to be a direct replacement for the center housing rotating assembly (CHRA) in compatible S300 turbocharger frames. Ensure your existing turbocharger housing is compatible with this cartridge size, or plan for a complete turbocharger assembly if you're starting from zero. This part is the core component that generates the boost, so choosing a well-built unit from a reputable manufacturer like BorgWarner is key to a successful and long-lasting performance upgrade.
