What is the benefit of an externally wastegated turbocharger?

An externally wastegated turbocharger allows for more precise control over boost pressure. This helps prevent over-boosting, ensures consistent power delivery, and can be easier to adjust than internal wastegates.

What does the 0.96 A/R ratio mean for performance?

The 0.96 A/R (Area/Radius) ratio on the turbine housing influences how quickly the turbocharger spools up and its ability to produce power at higher RPMs. A 0.96 A/R generally offers a good balance, providing relatively quick response while still supporting significant top-end power.

What supporting modifications are typically needed for this turbocharger?

Installing a turbocharger like this often requires upgrades to the fuel system, exhaust system, and engine cooling. Professional engine tuning is also essential to optimize performance and ensure engine reliability.

Product Details

If you're looking to significantly boost your engine's power output, a high-performance turbocharger like this Turbosmart TS-1 is a critical component. This unit is built around a T4 flange and features a 0.96 A/R (Area/Radius) ratio for the turbine housing, which offers a good balance between quick spool-up and high-end power delivery for many performance applications. The external wastegate design allows for more precise boost control compared to internal wastegates, helping to prevent over-boosting and maintain consistent power.

The C-Frame construction of this turbocharger is designed for durability and efficient airflow. It utilizes a robust bearing system to handle the high temperatures and rotational speeds associated with turbocharging. The 6870C designation indicates the specific compressor and turbine wheel sizes, tailored for applications seeking a substantial increase in horsepower. This turbocharger is a well-built piece of equipment, intended for enthusiasts who understand the complexities of engine tuning and require reliable performance under demanding conditions. Proper installation and tuning are essential to realize its full potential and ensure engine longevity.

When installing a turbocharger of this caliber, it's important to consider supporting modifications. This includes ensuring your engine's fuel system can supply adequate fuel, your exhaust system can efficiently handle the increased flow, and your cooling system can manage the extra heat generated. It's also crucial to have the engine's computer re-tuned by a professional to optimize performance and prevent engine damage. This turbocharger is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
