What is the purpose of water cooling in a turbocharger?

Water cooling helps to dissipate the extreme heat generated by the turbocharger during operation. This process is vital for maintaining the turbo's structural integrity, preventing premature wear, and ensuring consistent performance over time.

What does the '1.10 A/R' on the turbine housing mean?

The A/R ratio (Area/Radius) of the turbine housing indicates its size and shape, affecting exhaust gas flow. A 1.10 A/R is a larger ratio, generally favoring higher RPM power output and top-end flow compared to smaller A/R housings.

What is required for the external wastegate setup?

An external wastegate setup requires a compatible exhaust manifold with a dedicated port for the wastegate, as well as a wastegate actuator and plumbing to route the excess exhaust gas away from the turbine housing, typically back into the exhaust stream or atmosphere.

Product Details

Turbosmart is well-known for making robust performance parts, and their TS-2 turbocharger is a prime example of that commitment. This water-cooled unit is built around a 64mm compressor wheel and a 66mm turbine wheel, designed to help your engine breathe easier and make more power. It features a T3 turbine housing with a 1.10 A/R ratio, which is a good balance for spool-up and top-end flow on many applications. The external wastegate setup means you have precise control over boost pressure, preventing overboost and keeping your engine safe.

The water-cooling system is a critical feature for a turbocharger of this caliber. It helps dissipate heat generated during operation, which is essential for maintaining the turbo's longevity and consistent performance, especially under demanding conditions. This unit uses a standard T3 turbine inlet flange and a V-band outlet, making it adaptable to various exhaust manifold setups. The 1.10 A/R ratio on the turbine housing suggests it's geared more towards higher RPM power delivery, though it should still provide a noticeable improvement in throttle response over stock on many modified engines.

When installing a turbocharger like this, it's important to ensure your engine's lubrication and cooling systems are in top condition. Proper oil supply and drainage, along with the water cooling lines, are crucial for the turbo's health. This TS-2 turbocharger is a solid option for those looking to significantly increase their vehicle's horsepower and torque. Please note that this turbocharger is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
