Introducing our TTE500+ performance turbocharger, Including a CNC matched and ported OE intake pipe for the 2.5 TFSI motor. Based on the original turbocharger but upgraded to new higher output specification. Offering The Complete Ultra Plug & Play Upgrade to over 500PS on 98ron and proven at 550PS on 102.


Engineered & Enhanced

At the core of our TTE500+ is a much larger TTE compressor wheel, chosen because it is highly efficient and creates an extremely high flow for comparative size. Re-Profiled compressor cover to optimized tolerance to ensure maximum compressor efficiency is given.

We CNC mill the exhaust turbine housing to accept a larger 9 Blade turbine and shaft that is low in mass for quick response.

Attention is given to CNC port the exhaust runners at the flange to match and smooth the transition from head to exhaust runner for maximum gas speed and so improving efficiency to the bigger turbine.

Special profile 360 deg high-performance motorsport journal bearing is fitted, to remain durable at higher loads with no loss in transient response. The actuator used is uprated sprung OE unit, fitted with our reinforced clamps for trouble-free operation.

The intake pipe included with this upgrade has been CNC milled and hand finished to match and smooth the transition to the larger compressor inlet opening to lower turbulence and maximize velocity, this is sealed to the compressor cover by a Viton rubber o-ring for a constant dependable seal.


Equilibrium

Precisely balancing our turbochargers is a key critical factor to become a TTE upgrade unit as longevity and performance are paramount. Good balance improves acoustics also. Subsequent great care is taken with all TTE turbochargers to achieving our balance standards. Firstly parts are balanced at slow speeds up to 2800RPM in multiple planes using our single parts machine, then components are assembled and then the CHRA are dynamically balanced, but this time depending on application at up to 250,000 RPM in multiple planes using our in-house VSR machine to acquire the ultimate equilibrium, to a standard far higher than OEM. Each turbocharger is supplied with serial numbered balance test result document.

About this Turbocharger

The THE TURBO ENGINEERS TTE10027 turbocharger uses exhaust energy to spin a turbine that drives a compressor, forcing more air into the engine. More air means more power from a smaller engine, and turbocharger health depends heavily on clean oil.

Frequently asked questions

What are the signs of a failing turbocharger?

Loss of boost and power, a loud whine or siren sound, blue or grey smoke, oil in the intake pipes or intercooler, or boost-related fault codes.

What causes a turbocharger to fail?

Most failures come from oil problems, such as dirty oil, a blocked oil feed or late oil changes, and from foreign objects entering the turbine or compressor. Find and fix the cause before fitting the new turbo.

What should I replace along with the turbo?

Replace the oil feed and return lines or their seals, all gaskets and single-use fasteners, and change the oil and filter. Clean or replace the intercooler and pipes if the old turbo shed oil or debris into them.

Can I install a turbocharger myself?

It is an involved job with tight access and important oil-priming steps. Prime the turbo with oil before first start and let the engine idle to build oil pressure. An experienced technician is recommended.

How do I make sure this turbocharger fits my car?

Compare the part numbers listed on this page with the number on your old part or in your vehicle's parts catalog, and check the fitment information. If you are unsure, contact us with your VIN before ordering.
