Turbosmart TS-2 Turbocharger (Water Cooled) 7170 Kompact V-Band Reverse Rotation 0.96AR External WG

The 0.96 AR turbine housing on this Turbosmart TS-2 turbocharger is a key detail, offering a balance between quick spool-up and the ability to sustain boost at higher RPMs. This particular unit is water-cooled, which is crucial for managing the extreme temperatures generated by forced induction, helping to extend the turbo's lifespan and maintain consistent performance. It's designed with a reverse rotation, a specific configuration that can be beneficial for packaging in certain engine bays or for unique twin-turbo setups.

Built around the Kompact V-Band design, this turbocharger simplifies installation with its integrated V-band flange for the turbine housing and an external wastegate port. This means less fabrication and a more secure, leak-free connection compared to traditional flanged setups. The inclusion of an external wastegate allows for precise boost control, giving you the flexibility to tune your engine for optimal power delivery and reliability. This is a well-built piece from Turbosmart, known for their focus on performance and durability in forced induction components.

When considering a turbocharger of this caliber, it's important to ensure your engine's supporting systems are up to the task. This includes proper fuel delivery, engine management tuning, and an adequate cooling system. Because this turbocharger is not CARB approved, it cannot be legally shipped to California. Always consult with a professional tuner to dial in the boost and air-fuel ratios for your specific application to get the most out of this turbocharger safely.
