FAQ's

• Do we offer this turbocharger is a 1.32 option?
  Yes, but only for 500-550 HP tunes

• Do we build custom turbochargers for CAT applications?
  Yes! We offer various sizes and brand, please contact us for applications!

• Does our turbocharger carry a warranty?
  Yes! Turbochargers are covered by our warranty for 1 year

• Do we offer wastegated housings
  No. We have found them to be problematic and unreliable in most higher HP applications.

• What is the maximum boost pressure I can run with this turbocharger?
  We recommend keeping the boost in the 34-38 psi range as much as possible. Short runs with 40-42 psi are acceptable, but the unit should not operate above 42 psi on a regular basis. Single stage turbochargers of this size are pushed out of their operating range    very quickly and life expectancy is greatly reduced due to the inefficiencies found in higher than engineered pressure ratios, regardless of brand or model.

Please note, high altitude turbochargers will need to operate at a lower pressure. Please contact us regarding your application if you are regularly operating the vehicle above 4000 feet.
