This plug & play hybrid turbocharger is designed for for the following engines: 2.0 CDTI and 2.0 VCDI, as documented at.. The tuning packages on offer combine a high-flow MFS compressor wheel, a 360° bearing stop and high-speed balancing.
The applications listed are for the Chevrolet Captiva and Opel Antara from 2006 onwards. Installation is designed to require no modifications dto the vehicle, subject to verification of the original turbocharger part numbers d.
Available kits — Stage 1, Stage 2 and Stage 3
Stage 1
Compressor wheel: MFS high-flow
Thrust bearing: 360°
Balancing: high-speed at 150,000 rpm on a Cimat VSR test bench
This configuration enhances the compression capacity and air flow dwhilst retaining the architecture dof the planned installation.
Stage 2
Compressor impeller: MFS high-flow oversized
d’ intake housing: re-profiled for accommodate the impeller oversized
Thrust bearing: 360° bearing
Balancing: high-speed at 150,000 rpm on a Cimat VSR test bench
The housing has been re-profiled to allow dto fit the new compressor wheel. This configuration is designed to provide an air flow rate dsuitable for more advanced engine tuning.
Stage 3
Compressor impeller: MFS high-flow oversized
Intake casing d: re-profiled for accommodate the impeller oversized
Thrust bearing: 360° bearing
Turbine impeller: high-flow oversized
Turbine casing: reprofiled for ly to accommodate the impeller oversized
Balancing: high-speed at 150,000 rpm on a Cimat VSR test bench
This modification alters the compressor and turbine sides. Oversizing may affect the available flow rate, response time and optimal operating range.
What is a hybrid turbo?
A hybrid turbo features a modified architecture designed to accommodate modified internal components. Depending on the stage, the modification may involve the compressor impeller, the housings, the turbine impeller, the thrust bearing and balancing.
The aim is dto adapt the compression capacity and the air flow rate d. A hybrid turbo is therefore not defined solely by the appearance of its compressor wheel, but by its entire mechanical configuration.
MFS compressor wheel: standard or Performance?
MFS stands for ‘Milled From Solid’ and refers to a wheel machined from a solid block. This manufacturing process does not, on its own, guarantee an increase in air flow rate d.
A standard MFS impeller may retain a geometry close to the original. A Performance MFS impeller may adopt a profile, height, width or diameter suited to the tuning objective. The product specifications indicate a forged aluminium MFS wheel that is lighter, larger and taller than the d’original, allowing for 15 per cent additional compression.
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 d'air. A higher flow rate can only be fully utilised with appropriate engine tuning.
Why does the geometry of the blades influence the air flow rate d?
The compressor impeller draws in and then compresses the air. Its diameter, profile, height, width and blade arrangement all influence its aerodynamic behaviour. The result also depends on the casings, the turbine, the boost pressure and the engine management system. A larger impeller does not automatically guarantee better performance and may alter the response time.
Reliability and balancing of the hybrid turbocharger
The documented 360° thrust bearing distributes axial forces around the bearing. Balancing at 150,000 rpm on a Cimat VSR test bench helps to limit vibrations and stresses on the rotor, without compensating for poor installation or inadequate lubrication.
Engine remapping and preparation
Appropriate engine management is required for to make the most of the turbo’s characteristics. The mapping, boost pressure, injection, exhaust, cooling and, depending on the vehicle, the transmission must be checked or adjusted. The wastegate must be adjusted when remapping the ECU. The turbo alone does not guarantee a power gain.

Fitting advice
⚠️ WARNING — IMPORTANT BEFORE INSTALLATION
Identify and rectify the cause of the previous failure. Check the lubrication circuit, the oil supply and return lines d, the cleanliness of the pipes, and the inlet, ensuring there are no foreign objects present.. Prime the system in accordance with the applicable recommendations and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.. A lubrication fault that is not rectified may lead to further turbocharger failure.
How do you identify the correct turbo?
Check the turbo’s part number d, the original OEM and manufacturer part numbers, the model, engine type, power output,Year and engine code.. An identical engine type does not always guarantee compatibility.
⚠️ Check your turbo’s part numbers
Before ordering, compare the part number marked on your original turbo d with the part numbers listed in this product sheet. An identical engine specification does not always guarantee compatibility.
If in doubt, please contact us with the part number clearly visible on your original turbo d.
