{"product_id":"eqt-vortex-turbocharger","title":"EQT Vortex Turbocharger","description":"The Equilibrium EQT Vortex turbocharger is a complete bolt-on upgrade designed for the VW\/Audi MQB 1.8T and 2.0T platform, utilizing all new components and including new installation hardware. Its housings are modeled after OEM IS20\/IS38 turbochargers for precise fitment, offering a direct replacement that enhances performance.\n\nThe Vortex turbo line offers two configurations: Standard and XL. The Standard model, with an IS20-sized exhaust housing, can produce up to 440whp on 93 octane and up to 520whp on race gas or E85, spooling to 30 PSI as fast as 2800rpm. The Vortex XL, featuring an IS38-sized exhaust housing, achieves up to 460whp on 93 octane and up to 550whp on race gas or E85, with a slightly slower spool to 30 PSI as fast as 3000rpm. Both models use a 61mm\/54mm TD06SL2l turbine wheel and a 53mm\/71mm base with a 76mm extended tip compressor wheel, delivering excellent spool and a flat torque curve.\n\nTo maximize the potential of the EQT Vortex turbochargers, several supporting modifications are recommended. These include an upgraded High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) for pump gas, and for ethanol fueling, a Low-Pressure Fuel Pump (LPFP) and Multi-Port Injection (MPI) are required. Maximizing flow is advised with components such as a do88 Direct Replacement Intercooler, Blaze Atom V2 Air Intake, EQT Discharge Pipe Kit\/TMD, aftermarket exhaust, and EQT 5 Bar TMAP and PUT Sensors. Crucially, custom tuning is REQUIRED for proper operation and to ensure the longevity of the engine and transmission internals, as the turbo is capable of achieving 9-second 1\/4-mile times, as demonstrated by a customer's Audi S3 running the Vortex XL on E85 with a stock engine and transmission.","brand":"Equilibrium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687939699000,"sku":"EQT-02A01X02A","price":1599.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/663171379.webp?v=1784887793","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/eqt-vortex-turbocharger","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
