CTR5588S-88106 Air-Cooled 1.0 Turbocharger (1875 HP)

Lubrication is crucial for turbochargers that spin at super - high speeds. Traditionally, engine oil has been used to lubricate turbocharger bearing systems, but it comes with limitations like restricted mounting options, susceptibility to contaminants, leaks, and smoking. Comp Turbo's innovation led to the world's first production oil - less water - cooled turbocharger! The patented CTR Oil - Less Turbochargers use a Triplex Ceramic triple ball bearing system. The bearings are lubricated with a high - quality non - channeling grease. The bearing housing has a water jacket for cooling and a Zerk fitting for easy servicing. These ball - bearing turbochargers feature a patented triple ball bearing design with 99% mechanical efficiency. They offer faster transient response than the industry - standard dual ball bearing system because of minimized friction losses. This dramatically improves response times and boosts power output. Our patented Triplex Ceramic bearing system is housed in a billet aluminum cartridge, making our turbochargers 5 to 12 pounds lighter on average. All our turbochargers are proudly made in the USA and feature the latest R - Line technology. This includes the CTR 7/14 veined billet slim hub extended tip compressor wheel and high - efficiency CTR slim hub high - flow turbine wheel. Features: • Titanium Bullet Nose • Fully Rebuildable/Upgradeable • Anti - Surge Compressor Housing • CTR Compressor and Turbine Wheel • Triplex Ceramic Oil - Less Bearing System • Can be mounted in any orientation • Eliminates oil lines CTR Compressor Wheel Technology: The CTR - line turbochargers have a 7 - 14 vaned compressor wheel. It has a small - diameter hub to maximize intake airflow and an extended tip for better efficiency at high pressure ratios. The R - line design can produce higher boost pressures at high engine speeds and increase engine HP output by up to 15%. CTR High Flow Turbine Technology: The CTR Turbine wheels have 25% lower inertia, leading to quicker rotor acceleration. Their slim hub and thin blade design maximize flow capacity, 30% more than the prior GT style Turbine wheel. They have minimal leaving velocity, which means higher turbine efficiency and a greater flow range. Turbochargers are built to order and take 3 to 5 weeks to deliver.

Using your turbocharger: First, make sure it's installed correctly. Since it can be mounted in any orientation, choose the most convenient spot for your engine setup. Once installed, start your engine and let it run for a bit to check if everything is working properly. Notice how it boosts the power output. Maintenance: The turbocharger has a Zerk fitting for easy servicing. Regularly check the water jacket in the bearing housing to ensure proper cooling. If you notice any decrease in performance, it might be time to service the Triplex Ceramic Oil - Less Bearing System. Remember, this turbocharger doesn't use engine oil, so you don't have to worry about oil - related issues like leaks or contamination. However, still keep an eye on it for any signs of wear and tear. When it comes to upgrading or rebuilding, it's fully possible. If you want to increase the engine's HP output, you can take advantage of the R - Line technology features. Delivery: Keep in mind that the turbocharger is built to order, so it'll take 3 to 5 weeks to arrive. Be patient and wait for this high - performance part to enhance your engine.
