Description

If you're looking to boost the performance of your 2015+ MQB platform vehicle, CTS Turbo has got you covered with their BB-550 Hybrid Turbocharger. This premium ball-bearing hybrid turbocharger is a direct-bolt-on replacement for your existing IS12, IS20, or IS38 turbocharger.

Unlike other options on the market, CTS Turbo's engineers have re-designed and cast their proprietary stainless steel exhaust housing to accommodate a larger turbine wheel. This ensures that the compressor cover is custom made and profiled to accept a popular TD06 Billet compressor wheel, enabling the turbocharger to reliably handle 30+ PSI.

Moreover, the CHRA of this hybrid turbocharger has been upgraded to a dual-ball bearing made from heat-resistant ceramic, ensuring durability and longevity. Finally, the entire assembly is VSR balanced, exceeding OE tolerances, to ensure maximum performance.

This is a complete brand new turbocharger that requires no core or long wait times. Simply swap over your actuator and turbo outlet fitting for installation. Software tuning is required, and it is available from most tuners.

Other features of the CTS Turbo BB-550 Hybrid Turbocharger include compatibility with all factory oil and coolant lines, OE or replacement wastegate actuators (although the CTS-WGA-200 actuator is recommended), and OE or aftermarket turbo inlets and outlets. This hybrid turbocharger is also compatible with most tuning solutions, including United Motorsport, Eurodyne, and COBB.

In summary, the CTS Turbo BB-550 Hybrid Turbocharger is a high-performance, direct-bolt-on turbocharger that features a stainless steel exhaust housing, TD06 billet compressor wheel, dual ceramic ball bearing CHRA, and VSR balancing. It's a great option for those looking to upgrade the performance of their 2015+ MQB platform vehicle, and it's compatible with most tuning solutions, OE or replacement wastegate actuators, and turbo inlets and outlets.
