Three routes to more power

Which route suits you depends on your engine, your goals and your budget. We help you pick the right solution.

Billet compressor wheel

Swap cast compressor wheels for machined billet wheels in your existing turbo. Gives quicker response and more power without changing the installation.

  • +Quicker turbo response
  • +Higher peak flow
  • +Stronger blades
Most popular

Hybrid turbo

Your original turbo is rebuilt with upgraded internals - billet wheel, larger turbine wheel, reinforced bearings. It stays in the original position.

  • +Keeps the original fitment
  • +Considerably more power
  • +Discreet appearance

Larger turbo

A swap to a completely new, larger turbo with a custom manifold and pipework. For those who want to step up to really high power figures.

  • +Maximum power potential
  • +Sized for your goals
  • +Complete solution

How we work

An upgrade is not just about swapping parts. It is about matching the turbo to the engine, the fuel system and the exhaust flow. We have reconditioned and built turbos since Robert's rally days - that is experience that makes the difference.

Turbo inspection

Turbo inspection

Inspection of the turbo housing, compressor wheel, turbine wheel and bearings. A healthy unit is rebuilt; a worn one is reconditioned and upgraded.

Balancing

Balancing

Ensures perfect balancing of the compressor and turbine wheels. Prevents bearing damage at 100,000+ rpm.

Verification on the dyno

Verification on the dyno

Power measurement on the hub dyno shows in hard numbers what the upgrade delivers and that everything works as it should under load.

Frequently asked questions about turbo upgrades

An upgrade means the turbo is improved to deliver more power or better response. It can be done in three ways: swapping the compressor wheel for a machined billet wheel in the existing turbo, a hybrid turbo build with upgraded internals, or a swap to a completely new and larger unit. Which route suits you depends on your engine, your goals and your budget.
