Cascade German Hybrid Turbocharger for VW TDI CBEA CJAA

The Cascade German 53039880207-XR1 is a modified BorgWarner CR170 turbocharger, specifically engineered as an XR1 hybrid with billet wheels. This unit is designed to provide the convenience of a direct replacement for the CR170 while offering enhanced flow characteristics comparable to a CR190, allowing for tuning to that level. The primary benefit of this hybrid design is reduced Exhaust Gas Temperatures (EGTs), making it particularly suitable for towing applications or engine swaps in heavier vehicles. This turbocharger is intended for Common Rail VW TDIs equipped with CBEA or CJAA engine codes. It fits various Audi and Volkswagen models, including the A3/S3 Mk2, Beetle (2012-2016), Golf/Rabbit Mk6 and Mk7, and Jetta Mk5 and Mk6. A critical fitment note specifies that vehicles manufactured before July 20, 2009, require the installation of a new turbo outlet dampener, part number 03L131111Q. Installation of the 53039880207-XR1 necessitates additional components. A compatible downpipe, such as those offered by Rawtek, is required. Additionally, a specific turbo inlet pipe and elbow adapter, part number 3C0129654AJ, must be installed for proper function. The product comes with a 12-month/12,000-mile warranty covering mechanical failures due to workmanship. The product is not CARB legal and not for sale in California.
