Lubrication is crucial for turbochargers spinning at super high speeds. Traditionally, engine oil has been used to lubricate turbocharger bearing systems, but it comes with limitations and hassles. Oil-lubricated systems have restricted mounting options as oil needs to flow back to the engine by gravity, unless you use costly and complex scavenging systems. They're also prone to contamination from engine wear, as well as leaks and smoke. These issues inspired Comp Turbo to develop the world's first production oil-less turbocharger! The 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. In the Air-Cooled model, the bearing housing has an internal air passage behind the compressor wheel for cooling, instead of a water jacket. Without the need for oil or water lines, and with a Zerk fitting for easy servicing, the 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! This means a faster transient response compared to the industry-standard dual ball bearing system, thanks to reduced friction losses. It 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 tech. 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, with its large inducer diameters, can produce higher boost pressures at high engine speeds and increase engine HP output by up to 15%. The R-line advanced compressor wheels are available across our CT turbocharger line. CTR High Flow Turbine Technology: The CTR Turbine wheels have 25% lower inertia, leading to quicker rotor acceleration. The slim hub and thin blade design are unique and maximize flow capacity, 30% more than the previous GT style Turbine wheel. The Comp Turbo CTR high flow turbine wheels have minimal leaving velocity due to their long surface blade length, reducing losses. This results in higher turbine efficiency and a wider flow range than other industry turbine wheels. CTR turbine wheels are ideal for high exhaust flow requirements and have low leaving gas velocity to improve turbine efficiency. Turbochargers are built to order and take 3 to 5 weeks to deliver.
Using your Comp Turbo CTR3693S - 6265 Air - Cooled 1.0 Turbocharger is straightforward. Since it doesn't need oil or water lines, you can mount it in any orientation that suits your setup, whether it's low, mid, or remote mount. When it comes to maintenance, there's a Zerk fitting that makes servicing easy. You don't have to worry about oil contamination or leaks like with traditional oil - lubricated turbochargers. The turbocharger is fully rebuildable and upgradeable, so if you want to improve its performance in the future, you can. It's built to last, but keep in mind that it's made to order and will take 3 to 5 weeks to be delivered. When using it, make sure your engine is in good condition to get the best performance from the turbocharger. The titanium bullet nose and anti - surge compressor housing add to its durability and efficiency. Just enjoy the increased power output and faster response times that this turbocharger provides.
