What is the benefit of water cooling on this turbocharger?

Water cooling helps to dissipate heat from the turbocharger's bearing housing. This reduces bearing temperatures, which can significantly extend the turbo's lifespan and maintain consistent performance, especially under demanding conditions.

What does the 0.82 A/R on the turbine housing mean?

The A/R (Area to Radius ratio) of the turbine housing affects how quickly the turbo spools up and how well it breathes at higher RPMs. A 0.82 A/R is a common size that offers a good balance, providing decent low-end response while still allowing for good airflow at higher engine speeds.

What is the advantage of an externally wastegated turbocharger?

An external wastegate allows for more precise and responsive control over boost pressure compared to an internal wastegate. This is beneficial for tuning, as it helps to maintain a more stable boost level and prevent overboosting, leading to safer and more efficient power delivery.

Product Details

Turbosmart is well-known for making robust performance parts for serious automotive applications. This TS-2 turbocharger is a prime example of their commitment to quality and power. It's a water-cooled unit designed to help you get more out of your engine, featuring a T3 exhaust manifold flange and an external wastegate for precise boost control. This setup is ideal for builders looking to significantly increase horsepower and torque.

The TS-2 comes with a 58mm compressor wheel and a 0.82 A/R turbine housing. The 58mm compressor is a popular size that balances quick spool-up with the ability to move a good amount of air for substantial power gains. The 0.82 A/R turbine housing is well-suited for a wide range of engine displacements and applications, offering a good compromise between low-end response and high-RPM breathing. The water-cooling feature is crucial for longevity, especially in high-performance setups where heat can be a major factor. This helps to keep bearing temperatures down, extending the life of the turbocharger and maintaining consistent performance over time.

This turbocharger is designed for external wastegate use, which allows for more accurate and responsive boost control compared to internal wastegates. This is important for tuning and ensuring your engine operates within safe parameters while maximizing power output. Please note that this turbocharger is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. It's a solid option for those building a custom forced induction system where precise control and significant power are the goals.
