CTS Turbo heard your demands, and are happy to unveil the latest premium hybrid turbo with a stainless steel exhaust housing specifically designed for MQB platform vehicles.
The goal was to develop a drop-in turbo with fast spool, massive torque curve and reliable performance. CTS Turbo's engineers decided to keep the journal bearing CHRA from their popular IS38 turbocharger and spice it up a bit, to match the larger wheels and a performance-oriented nature of this upgrade. The thrust bearings and thrust collars were increased by 2 mm to accommodate the extra load. The oil passages were increased by 0.72 mm to allow the most efficient hydrodynamic wedge when the turbocharger is in operation. This turbocharger was extensively tested on their own and their partner vehicles around the world, at different altitudes and different climates.
Long story short: this turbocharger is capable of delivering approximately 600 crank hp, around 520-530whp on E85 and 430-460whp on pump 93 octane**. The turbocharger is designed for street use, focusing mostly on fast spool times and solid mid-range performance.
CTS Turbo recommends keeping the boost within 25-28psi, less if you’re limited by fueling or stock engine. Do not exceed the recommended boost range, as it will reduce efficiency.
Features:
- Perfect street turbocharger upgrade, fantastic spool and mid-range response
- Journal bearing direct-fit CHRA (compatible with all factory oil and coolant lines)
- Billet reverse rotation compressor wheel, 53.1mm inducer, 71mm-76mm exducer with extended tip (6+6 blade configuration)
- Inconel TD06SL2 reverse rotation turbine wheel, 54mm exducer, 60mm inducer (11 blade configuration)
- Stainless Steel proprietary turbine housing, made precisely for factory fitment
