TTE IS38 TTE555 TURBOCHARGER

VAG 2.0 / 1.8TSI EA888.3 MQB TTE555 UPGRADE TURBOCHARGER

TTE555 is our latest hybrid performance upgrade turbocharger based on the original IHI IS38 turbocharger for the third generation VAG 2.0TSI. 3+ stage power, with good coil and response. We believe this is the highest performing hybrid IS38 available.

EA888 Gen 3 – IS38 designed and improved

To build a TTE555 we change the original compressor and use a much larger and more efficient billet wheel with extended tip technology and mas mill the compressor cover to the optimal clearance to fit the new profile of the compressor. We replace the original IS38 turbine and CNC mill the turbine housing to install a larger lightweight 9-blade turbine for increased gas flow. We also replace the original thrust bearing for the in-house made TTE 360 deg upgrade.

We also adapt our TTE CNC Billet muffler, removing any restriction and its function as a noise canceling device, thus improving the flow and response and improving the sound.

The 9-blade TTE turbine is a special turbine designed by TheTurboEngineers. The benefits are increased gas flow, reduced back pressure and lowered exhaust gas temperatures, allowing for safer higher boost levels. This turbine is extremely light in mass, thus giving a low moment of inertia, which means fast spooling for the size.

Balance

Precisely balancing our turbochargers is a key critical factor in becoming a TTE upgrade unit as longevity and performance are key. A good balance also improves acoustics. Subsequently great care is taken with all TTE turbochargers to achieve our balance standards. The first parts are balanced at low speeds up to 2800 RPM in multiple planes using our single parts machine, then the components are assembled and then the CHRAs are dynamically balanced, but this time depending on the application up to 250,000 RPM in multiple planes using our in-house VSR machine to acquire maximum balance, to a standard much higher than the OEM. Each turbocharger comes with a serial numbered balance test result document.
