What is a hybrid turbo ?

A hybrid turbo is based on a specially adapted turbocharger design for to receive internal components or machined parts that differ from the specification d’origin’. Depending on the modification, changes may relate to the compressor impeller, its geometry, its dimensions, the casings, the turbine impeller, the thrust bearing or the balancing.

The aim is d’adjust the compression capacity and flow rate’ d’air to meet the requirements of engine preparation. A hybrid turbocharger is therefore not defined solely by the appearance of its compressor wheel: consistency between the wheels, the housings, the balancing and the engine management system is essential.

MFS compressor wheel: standard or Performance ? ?

MFS stands for ‘Milled From Solid’, meaning a wheel machined from a solid block. This term describes a manufacturing process and does not, in itself, guarantee an increase in flow rate dair.

A standard MFS wheel can retain a geometry equivalent to that d’origin’. An MFS wheel Performance may use a blade geometry, diameter or configuration suited to the preparation objective, such as the configurations and dimensions documented for the different stages of this turbo.

A standard MFS wheel can be just as shiny as an MFS wheel Performance. It is not its appearance that determines its performance, but its geometry and its ability to move more dair. A higher flow rate can enable the engine to produce more power with the right set-up, although this does not guarantee an automatic increase in performance.

Why does the geometry of the blades affect the flow rate? d’air ?

The compressor wheel draws in and then compresses the air intended for the engine. Its diameter, profile, height, width and the arrangement of its blades influence its aerodynamic behaviour and the amount dthe volume of air it can displace under certain conditions.

The result also depends on the compressor housing, the impeller and the turbine housing, the boost pressure and the engine tuning. A larger wheel does not automatically guarantee better performance and may affect response time and range doptimal use.

Reliability and balancing of the hybrid turbocharger

The three work placements offer da 360° bearing stop, designed for to distribute axial forces over a large area. This feature helps to ensure the overall integrity of the assembly, without removing the constraints associated with use, assembly or lubrication.

Every preparation benefits from d’high-speed balancing at 150,000 rpm on a Cimat VSR test bench’. Rotor balancing helps to minimise vibrations and mechanical stresses, but does not protect against incorrect installation or a fault doil or the presence of foreign matter.

Engine remapping and tuning

Appropriate engine management may be required for make the most of the hybrid turbo’s features. Mapping, boost pressure, fuel supply, air cooling dThe intake, exhaust, clutch and gearbox must be checked, depending on the vehicle and the level of modification.

The wastegate must be adjusted during the installation and remapping of the ECU. A hybrid turbo does not automatically guarantee a power increase without appropriate tuning and without adapting the relevant peripheral systems.

How do you choose the right turbo ?

Check the reference number engraved or marked on the turbocharger dthe original, then compare it with the OEM and manufacturer’s specifications in this data sheet. Also check the make, model, generation, body style, engine type and power output of 110 hp, theYear the mounting code and the engine code, where available.

The same engine can be fitted with several different turbocharger set-ups. Matching the model and power rating is therefore not always sufficient to confirm compatibility.
