Product Description
Lubrication is crucial for turbochargers spinning at super - high speeds. Traditionally, engine oil has been used to lubricate turbocharger bearing systems. However, it comes with limitations and hassles. Oil - lubricated systems have restricted mounting options. Oil needs to flow back to the engine by gravity, unless you use costly and complex scavenging systems. They're also prone to contaminants from engine wear, leaks, and smoking. Comp Turbo tackled these issues head - on and developed the world's first production oil - less turbocharger! Our patented CTR Oil - Less Turbochargers use a Triplex Ceramic triple ball bearing system. The bearings are lubricated with a special high - quality non - channeling grease. The Air - Cooled model's bearing housing has an internal air passage behind the compressor wheel for cooling, replacing the water jacket. Without the need for oil or water lines and featuring a Zerk fitting for easy servicing, our CTR Air - Cooled Triplex Ceramic Turbochargers are perfect for low, mid, or remote mount setups. Comp Turbo ball bearing turbochargers have a patented triple ball bearing design with 99% mechanical efficiency. They respond faster than the industry - standard dual ball bearing system because of reduced friction losses. This significantly improves response times and boosts power output! Our patented Triplex Ceramic bearing system is housed in a billet aluminum housing, making our turbochargers 5 to 12 pounds lighter on average. Our entire line of turbochargers is proudly made in the USA and features our latest R - Line technology. It includes the CTR 7/14 veined billet slim hub extended tip compressor wheel and CTR slim hub lightweight turbine wheel, our most advanced rotor technology yet. Features: • Titanium Bullet Nose • Fully Rebuildable/Upgradeable • Anti - Surge Compressor Housing • CTR Compressor and Turbine Wheel • No need for oil and water lines • Can be mounted in any orientation CTR Compressor Wheel Technology: The CTR - line turbochargers have a 7 - 14 vaned compressor wheel with the latest compressor design. It has a small - diameter hub to increase intake airflow and an extended tip for better efficiency at high pressure ratios. The R - line design, with its large inducer diameters, generates higher boost pressures at high engine speeds and can increase engine HP output by up to 15%. This advanced design is available across our CT turbocharger line. CTR High Flow Turbine Technology: The CTR Turbine wheels have 25% lower inertia, which means faster rotor acceleration. Their slim hub and thin blade design are unique and increase flow capacity by 30% compared to the old GT style Turbine wheel. The long surface blade length reduces leaving velocity, minimizing losses. This results in higher turbine efficiency and a wider flow range than other industry wheels. CTR turbine wheels are ideal for high - exhaust - flow requirements and improve turbine efficiency. Turbochargers are built to order and take 3 to 5 weeks to deliver.
Using your CTR3693S - 6265 turbocharger is straightforward. First, make sure it's mounted correctly. Since it can be mounted in any orientation, choose the one that suits your engine setup best. When starting your engine, let it run for a short time to ensure the turbocharger is operating smoothly. During normal use, keep an eye on your engine's performance. If you notice any changes, it could be a sign that the turbocharger needs attention. Maintenance is key to keeping your turbocharger in top shape. Thanks to the Zerk fitting, servicing is easy. Regularly check the bearing system lubrication. The high - quality non - channeling grease used in the Triplex Ceramic triple ball bearing system doesn't need frequent replacement, but it's good to inspect it periodically. Also, since this is an oil - less and air - cooled turbocharger, you don't have to worry about oil or water line issues. However, check the internal air passage in the bearing housing for any blockages. If you plan to rebuild or upgrade your turbocharger, it's fully capable of that. But if you're not experienced, it's best to seek professional help. Remember, turbochargers are built to order and take 3 to 5 weeks to deliver, so plan ahead if you need a replacement.
