The Benefits Of Garrett Ball Bearings

The Benefits Of Garrett Ball Bearings

News, Products
Typically, most turbochargers either use a journal or a ball bearing system – or a variation of one of these themes. Definitions:  The cartridge ball bearing System: A cartridge style system containing eight angular contact ball bearings at either end. The journal bearing system: A solid bearing system which contains a thrust bearing and a set of journal bearings.  The journal bearing system has traditionally been the staple of most turbocharger systems, popular because of its low cost and reliability. Indeed the vast majority of turbochargers currently in service in OE applications feature a journal bearing system. The Garrett Ball Bearing Turbo range offers a significant development, with the ball-bearing design offering a popular alternative with well proven performance gains to the journal bearing. Garrett has revealed that the advanced ball bearing design was the product…

MDX607 With Zircotec’s Performance Ceramic Coating

Products, Technical
As a proud Zircotec authorised distributor, we were excited to show you one of our latest hybrid turbochargers, the MDX607, with performance white ceramic coating. The thermohold technology Zircotec used in their ceramic coating products not only leave a turbocharger and its manifold looking exquisite, it also has great performance benefits.   The coating significantly reduces the heat transfer process between the exhaust manifold and turbocharger, along with other engine parts, providing excellent heat protection. This transferring of heat can be highly damaging for motorcycles and cars as it can reduce component reliability resulting in safety issues, it can reduce engine performance and damage expensive finishes. The performance ceramic coating provided by Zircotec not only protects heat sensitive components, it actually reduces the temperature underneath the bonnet significantly. This lower temperature alters the temperature…

Can You Recondition A Garrett VNT Turbocharger?

Can You Recondition A Garrett VNT Turbocharger?

Help & Advice, Products, Technical
Garrett VNT Turbos are OE fit on most modern turbocharged vehicles because they are extremely efficient, providing the best combination of performance boost and economy. Turbos use variable vanes to set the optimum airflow for engine load and speed. They are so complex, it is impossible for remanufacturers to exactly match their critical tolerances and settings. So, buying a reman VNT turbo will inevitably lead to disappointed customers, with extra expense and loss of reputation for dealers. The only safe way to replace Garrett VNT Turbos is with a brand new one from a Garrett Authorised Turbo Specialist, such as Turbo Dynamics.
