Show original supplier description
The TTE280L performance turbocharger is a precision-engineered hybrid upgrade specifically developed for the VAG 1.8T longitudinal platform. It delivers significantly increased airflow, efficiency, and durability while maintaining excellent drivability and response. The turbocharger is built using a larger BorgWarner 2283 billet compressor wheel with Extended Tip Technology, providing high airflow and a stable compressor map. The compressor inlet is CNC-machined and polished for smooth airflow, precisely matched to the compressor cover. The exhaust turbine housing is CNC re-profiled, and the exhaust outlet is ported to accommodate a larger TTE 9-blade high-flow turbine and shaft. This design significantly increases exhaust gas flow, reducing back pressure and lowering exhaust gas temperatures, which supports safer operation at higher boost levels while maintaining reliability. A special-profile 360-degree high-performance BorgWarner motorsport journal bearing ensures durability under increased loads. Boost control is managed by an uprated BorgWarner actuator with a reinforced spring for stable and precise regulation. Each component is individually balanced, and the CHRA is dynamically balanced using an in-house VSR machine to speeds up to 250,000 RPM, exceeding OEM specifications. The turbocharger is supplied with a serial-numbered balance test certificate. Installation is plug-and-play, with a recommendation for a larger turbo inlet hose (such as the 034 2.5″). Software recalibration is required for proper operation. This turbocharger is capable of supporting up to 300 PS and comes with a 1-year TTE warranty. It is made in Germany.
