*WARNING: For vehicles that don't have stock K04-064 turbo, for its application will be needed some modifications required which are not included. This turbo includes only the modification required to the turbocharger's compressor housing to fit without interfering with the engine block. All other modifications required such as silicone hose, diverter valve relocation, etc are not included and are the responsibility of the mechanic to perform those modifications.

Presentation of the Upgraded Turbocharger by RTMG PERFORMANCE

What is a hybrid turbocharger, and how did it become popular?
The hybrid turbocharger became known many years ago when turbocharger repair shops, in order to fix damaged turbos, started using larger compressor wheels and shafts to cover up the damage caused by wheel-to-housing contact. That's how it all began. After a proper repair, many workshops noticed an increase in power, while some experienced a decrease due to poor workmanship or lack of knowledge.

What is a hybrid turbocharger?
It's essentially the same factory turbocharger but with larger compressor and turbine wheels, allowing for greater airflow. More airflow, combined with more fuel, equals more power. The greatest benefit of a well-built hybrid turbocharger is that it doesn't require additional modifications for a larger turbocharger, such as custom manifolds, oil lines, water pipes, air pipes, or exhaust system modifications. These are huge benefits that make the hybrid turbocharger an ideal upgrade when done by professionals with the right CNC machines, reinforced bearings, dynamic balancing with a VSr machine (which balances dynamically to 0.01 g), and performance testing before and after. It is the best value-for-money improvement.

Our Expertise
Our team has a dedicated group of engineers with 15 years of experience in turbocharger repair and upgrades. We own brand-new CNC machines, use advanced CAD-CAM design software for simulating forces, and design high-performance components such as bearings. We also have the latest generation 2024 precision balancing equipment, which measures and tests the performance of the turbo before and after the upgrade in cubic feet per minute (CFM). This is very important because a wrong choice of wheel size that doesn't match the housing can disrupt the energy balance, performance, and spool time of the turbocharger.

Why Choose Our Hybrid Turbochargers?
One of the most important aspects of our services is the perfect fit we achieve with our CNC machines between the turbine and the housing, as our machining precision reaches 0.001 mm. This is crucial, as we follow ISO 9001-2018 standards, which ensures repeatability in every product we manufacture. Another advantage of our hybrid turbochargers is the low-speed balancing done before the VSr balancing, which measures up to 300,000 RPM. During this process, we test the components' behavior under near-real conditions, checking for oil leaks and other issues.

All these steps are included in every RTMG PERFORMANCE turbocharger, and we provide documented results. This, combined with our passion for improvement, has earned us many records and a legacy of satisfied customers worldwide. We never stop researching and developing, as this continuous improvement process allows us to push the boundaries of automotive performance.

Attention: Factors for the Proper Operation of the Turbo

a) This turbo must operate with a minimum internal cold air intake diameter of 70mm.
b) An intercooler capable of supporting at least 600 horsepower is mandatory.
c) Oil pressure must be maintained at 5 bar.
d) Proper ECU tuning is essential for both performance and reliability. Correct tuning prevents the throttle valve from closing, ensuring smooth operation.
e) The catalytic converter must support 600 horsepower; typically, a metallic one with 100 cells is recommended. The exhaust system should ideally have a 76mm diameter.
f) The quality and condition of the oil must meet high-performance specifications.
g) Regular checks of the air pressure system are essential to maintain at least 2 bar, preventing turbo overspeed.
h) It is recommended to use a mechanical blow-off valve, as the factory-installed valve may fail to close, leading to turbo overspeed.
