Forced Performance Mitsubishi Evo 9 Green XR57SR Turbo Journal Bearing SS Turbine Hsg (D/S Only)

Forced Performance is well-known for building robust turbochargers, and their Green XR57SR turbocharger is a prime example of their expertise for the Mitsubishi Evo 9. This unit features a journal bearing design, which is a tried-and-true setup that offers reliability and a solid performance foundation. The stainless steel turbine housing is a notable upgrade, offering improved resistance to heat and corrosion compared to cast iron, which is especially important in high-performance applications where exhaust temperatures can soar.

This turbocharger is specifically configured with a D/S (Downpipe Side) stainless steel turbine housing, meaning it's designed to bolt up to a specific downpipe setup. The XR57SR designation indicates a particular aerodynamic package within Forced Performance's lineup, often associated with a balance of airflow and responsiveness suitable for street and track use. The journal bearing system, while requiring proper lubrication and warm-up/cool-down procedures, is a durable choice for many performance builds. It’s important to ensure your oil feed and drain lines are correctly routed and sized to support the journal bearing system effectively, as this is critical for longevity and consistent performance.

When installing a turbocharger like this, it's always recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation guide for specific details regarding oil and coolant line requirements, wastegate setup, and any necessary supporting modifications. Given its performance focus, this turbocharger is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Proper tuning after installation is essential to maximize the benefits of this turbocharger and ensure the engine operates safely and efficiently.
