What does 'oil-cooled' mean for this turbocharger?

Oil-cooled means the turbocharger uses engine oil to dissipate heat. This is a standard and effective method for keeping the turbocharger's internal components within safe operating temperatures, especially under high boost conditions.

What is the significance of the 1.00 A/R ratio?

The A/R ratio (Area-to-Radius) of the turbine housing affects how the turbocharger performs. A 1.00 A/R generally indicates a housing that can support higher horsepower levels by allowing more exhaust gas flow, while still providing a decent spool-up time for its size.

What does it mean that this turbo is not CARB approved?

CARB (California Air Resources Board) approval means a part meets specific emissions standards for use in California. Since this turbocharger is not CARB approved, it cannot be legally installed or shipped to California due to emissions regulations.

Product Details

Turbosmart is well-known for making high-performance engine components, especially for turbocharged and supercharged applications. This TS-1 turbocharger is a prime example of their commitment to robust, reliable power. It's built around a 6466 size compressor and turbine, offering a good balance for many performance builds. The V-band connections for both the inlet and outlet make installation straightforward and ensure a secure seal, which is crucial for maintaining boost pressure.

This unit is oil-cooled, a common and effective method for managing the extreme temperatures generated within a turbocharger. The A/R ratio of 1.00 on the turbine housing is a key spec that influences how quickly the turbo spools up and how much top-end power it can make. A 1.00 A/R generally points towards a turbo that can support significant airflow for higher horsepower goals, while still offering a reasonable response time. This turbocharger is designed for enthusiasts looking to build a serious performance engine, and it's a solid foundation for a custom turbo system.

When planning your build, remember that this turbocharger is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. It's important to consider all the supporting modifications needed for a turbo system, such as fuel delivery, engine management, and exhaust fabrication, to get the most out of this unit and ensure long-term reliability.
