What is an A/R ratio and why does it matter for a turbine housing?

The A/R ratio (Area/Radius) describes the size of the volute or scroll within the turbine housing. A smaller A/R, like the 0.82 on this housing, generally results in faster turbocharger spool-up and improved low-end response. A larger A/R favors higher RPM power by allowing more exhaust flow.

What type of connection does this turbine housing use?

This turbine housing features a V-band inlet connection. This type of connection uses a clamp to secure the housing, offering a strong, leak-free seal and making installation or removal simpler than traditional bolt-on flanges.

What vehicles or turbochargers is this housing compatible with?

This housing is specifically designed to mate with Turbosmart TS-1 and TS-2 internal wastegate actuators. Compatibility with specific turbocharger models depends on whether their turbine inlet matches the 62mm V-band specification and the chosen 0.82 A/R ratio suits the turbo's overall design.

Product Details

If you're building a custom turbo setup or upgrading your existing forced induction system, getting the right turbine housing is key to controlling boost and maximizing performance. This Turbosmart 62mm V-band turbine housing is designed to work with their TS-1 and TS-2 internal wastegate actuators, offering a specific airflow path for your turbocharger. The 0.82 A/R ratio is a good middle-ground for many applications, helping to spool the turbo efficiently while still allowing it to breathe at higher RPMs.

This housing is constructed from durable cast iron, which can handle the high temperatures and pressures found in the exhaust stream. The V-band connection makes for a secure and leak-free seal to your turbine inlet, and it simplifies installation and removal compared to traditional bolt-on flanges. It's important to note that this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Ensure your turbocharger's compressor housing and wastegate actuator are compatible with this turbine housing before purchase.

When setting up your system, pay close attention to the A/R ratio. A smaller A/R, like this 0.82, generally leads to quicker turbo spool and better low-end torque, while a larger A/R will favor top-end power at the expense of some initial responsiveness. This housing is a solid choice for those looking to fine-tune their turbo system's performance characteristics.
