The Re-Profiled compressor cover is machined to a optimized tolerance to ensure maximum compressor efficiency. The intake pipe is larger and ported to give a smooth transition for the incoming air flow. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e A key part to driving the large TTE compressor and in turn making this unit produce the huge power advantage over stock  is machining and fitting a far larger curved clipped turbine and shaft, while still keeping the original core. This turbine gives much lower back pressure and keeps EGT lower compared to stock turbine or clipped stock.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The clipping of the turbine. Clipping reduces blade area thus increasing gas flow and so reducing back pressure and lowering exhaust gas temperatures, allowing safer higher boost level's. This process gives a secondary advantage of removing some material, lightening the turbine thus reducing rotational mass improving moment of inertia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe re-engineer the rattle prone waste gate flapper for a more robust design for trouble free operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEquilibrium\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Precisely balancing our turbochargers is a key critical factor to become a TTE upgrade unit as longevity and performance are paramount. Good balance improves acoustics also. Subsequent great care is taken with all TTE turbochargers to achieving our balance standards. Firstly parts are balanced at slow speeds up to 2800RPM in multiple planes using our single parts machine, then components are assembled and the CHRA is dynamically balanced, but this time depending on application at up to 250,000 RPM in multiple planes using our in house VSR machine to acquire the ultimate equilibrium, to a standard far higher than OEM. Each turbocharger is supplied with serial numbered balance test result document.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.4;\"\u003eGenuine Housings, Exhaust manifold and Components\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.4;\"\u003eTTE Billet Highly Efficient Next Gen Compressor \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.4;\"\u003e2” Inlet Optimized Compressor Cover Machining Clearances\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.4;\"\u003eCNC Milled exhaust housing and compressor cover \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.4;\"\u003eLarger Turbine, Special Curved Clipped \u003cspan\u003eand\u003c\/span\u003e lightened blades\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.4;\"\u003eWastegate arm, flapper upgrade \u003cspan\u003eand\u003c\/span\u003e Reinforced bushing \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.4;\"\u003eFitment As Original.
