Lubrication is crucial for turbochargers spinning at extremely high speeds. Traditionally, engine oil has been used to lubricate turbocharger bearing systems, but it comes with limitations and inconveniences. Oil-lubricated systems offer limited mounting options, as oil must flow back into the engine by gravity unless costly and complex scavenging systems are added. They're also prone to contamination from engine wear, leaks, and smoking. Comp Turbo's innovative design 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 lubricated by a high-quality non-channeling grease. The bearing housing has a water jacket for cooling and a Zerk fitting for easy servicing. Comp Turbo ball bearing turbochargers feature a patented triple ball bearing design with 99% mechanical efficiency. This results in a faster transient response than the industry standard dual ball bearing system due to reduced friction losses, significantly improving response times and maximizing 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. Our entire line of turbochargers is proudly made in the USA and features our latest R-Line technology, including 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 with the latest compressor design technology. It has a small-diameter hub to maximize intake airflow and an extended tip design 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, enabling faster rotor acceleration. Their slim hub and thin blade design are unique and maximize flow capacity, 30% more than the previous GT style Turbine wheel. They have minimal leaving velocity, reducing losses and increasing turbine efficiency and flow range. CTR turbine wheels are ideal for high exhaust flow requirements. Turbochargers are built to order and take 3 to 5 weeks to deliver.
Using your CTR5594S-94106 turbocharger is straightforward. First, make sure it's installed correctly by a professional. Since it can be mounted in any orientation and doesn't need oil lines, installation gives you more flexibility. When starting your engine, let it run for a bit to warm up before pushing it hard. This helps the turbocharger reach its optimal working condition. As for maintenance, the Zerk fitting on the bearing housing makes it easy to service. Regularly check for any signs of wear or damage, like unusual noises or vibrations. If you notice anything, have it inspected right away. And remember, these turbochargers are built to order, so it'll take 3 to 5 weeks to get yours. Keep these tips in mind, and your turbocharger will keep performing great.
