Product Description
As we all know, journal bearings have long been a turbocharger's strong - suit and are still widely used in most turbochargers today. But the ball - bearing cartridge represents the latest turbocharger bearing technology, bringing significant performance improvements. Comp Turbo has taken this technology to a whole new level! Comp Turbo's innovative design and technology have set a new standard for quality, performance, and value. High - performance applications need a turbocharger that can accelerate quickly to build boost pressure rapidly. This allows the engine to generate high torque at low engine speeds and deliver extremely high - power output at maximum engine speeds. Enter Comp Turbo's patented Triplex Ceramic Turbochargers! Comp Turbo's ball - bearing turbochargers feature a patented triplex ball - bearing design with 99% mechanical efficiency. This results in a faster transient response compared to the industry - standard dual ball - bearing system, thanks to minimized friction losses. It significantly improves response times and maximizes 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 than others. 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 the high - efficiency CTR slim - hub lightweight high - flow turbine wheel, our most advanced rotor technology yet. Features: • Titanium Bullet Nose • Fully Rebuildable/Upgradeable • Anti - Surge Compressor Housing • CTR Compressor and Turbine Wheel • Triplex Ceramic Bearing System CTR Compressor Wheel Technology: The CTR - line turbochargers have a compressor wheel with 7 - 14 vanes, representing the latest compressor design technology. They have a minimum - diameter hub to maximize intake airflow and an extended - tip design for better efficiency at higher pressure ratios. The R - line design, with maximum inducer diameters, can produce higher boost pressures at high engine speeds and increase engine HP output by up to 15%. The R - line advanced - design compressor wheels are available across our complete line of CT turbochargers. CTR High - Flow Turbine Technology: The CTR turbine wheels have 25% lower inertia, leading to faster rotor acceleration. The slim - hub and thin - blade design make this wheel unique and maximize the flow capacity, increasing it by 30% compared to the prior GT - style turbine wheel. The Comp Turbo CTR high - flow turbine wheels have minimal leaving velocity due to the longer surface blade length, minimizing leaving losses. This leads to higher turbine efficiency and a greater flow range than other turbine wheels in the industry. CTR turbine wheels are designed for high exhaust flow requirements and have minimal leaving gas velocity, which increases turbine efficiency. Turbochargers are built to order and take 3 to 5 weeks to deliver.
Using your Comp Turbo turbocharger is straightforward. First, make sure it's properly installed in your engine according to the provided installation guide. Once installed, start your engine as you normally would. The turbocharger will start working as the engine revs up, helping to build boost pressure and increase power. As for maintenance, it's important to check the oil regularly. The oil lubricates the turbocharger and keeps it running smoothly. If the oil level is low, top it up with the recommended oil type. Also, keep an eye on the air filter. A clean air filter ensures proper airflow to the turbocharger. Every once in a while, inspect the turbocharger for any signs of damage or wear, like leaks or unusual noises. If you notice anything wrong, don't hesitate to contact a professional for assistance. Remember, these turbochargers are built to order, so they'll take 3 to 5 weeks to arrive. Be patient and look forward to enhanced engine performance once it's installed.
