Forced Performance Mitsubishi Evo 9 Green XR57SR Turbo Ball Bearing Black Turbine Housing (D/S Only)

The black turbine housing on this Forced Performance Green XR57SR turbocharger is built with a durable cast iron material, chosen for its ability to withstand high exhaust gas temperatures. This specific housing is designed for the Mitsubishi Evolution 9 and features a ball-bearing center cartridge, which helps the turbo spool up faster compared to journal bearing turbos. The XR57SR designation indicates a specific aerodynamic profile within the turbine housing, aimed at optimizing exhaust flow and improving the turbo's responsiveness.

This turbocharger is a direct replacement for the stock unit on your Evo 9, but it's important to note that it is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. The ball-bearing design means less friction inside the turbo, allowing it to reach boost pressure more quickly. This can lead to a more immediate throttle response and a broader powerband, especially when paired with appropriate supporting modifications. The black finish on the turbine housing is a cosmetic choice but also helps to dissipate heat.

When installing this turbo, ensure you have all the necessary supporting modifications and hardware. Because this is a significant upgrade, it's recommended to consult with a professional tuner to properly map the engine's computer for optimal performance and reliability. This turbocharger is intended for off-road use and is not street legal in California due to emissions regulations.
