What is a hybrid turbo ?

A hybrid turbo utilises a suitably adapted turbocharger design for to receive modified internal components. Depending on the course, the preparation may involve the compressor wheel, the casings, the turbine wheel, the thrust bearing system and balancing.

The aim is d’adjust the compression capacity and flow rate’ dair. However, a hybrid turbocharger is not defined solely by the appearance of its impeller: the geometry of the components and their mechanical compatibility are crucial.

MFS compressor wheel: standard or Performance ? ?

MFS stands for ‘Milled From Solid’, meaning a wheel machined from a solid block. This technology describes its manufacturing process and does not, on its own, guarantee an increase in throughput dair.

A standard MFS wheel can retain a geometry equivalent to the original. An MFS wheel Performance can be fitted with a profile, blade height, width or diameter suited to the preparation objective. On this product, the wheel is described as being made of forged aluminium; it is lighter, larger and taller than the one d’original, with a claimed compression capacity 15 per cent higher.

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 contribute to power development with the appropriate engine tuning, although this alone does not guarantee a specific result.

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

The compressor wheel draws in and then compresses the air fed to the engine. Its diameter, profile, height, width and the arrangement of the blades all influence its aerodynamic behaviour. The result also depends on the casings, the turbine wheel, the boost pressure and the engine tuning. A larger wheel therefore does not automatically guarantee better performance and may affect response time.

Reliability and balancing of the hybrid turbocharger

The 360° bearing stop helps to distribute the axial forces acting on the rotating assembly. It helps to manage the stresses associated with preparation without making the turbocharger immune to faults in assembly or lubrication.

Each documented bearing is subjected to high-speed balancing at 150,000 rpm on a Cimat VSR test bench. The aim of this operation is to minimise vibrations and mechanical stresses on the rotor.

Engine remapping and tuning

The farm dA hybrid turbo requires appropriate engine management. Mapping, boost pressure, fuel injection, air cooling d’The intake, exhaust and transmission must be checked in accordance with the level of preparation’. The wastegate must be adjusted when the ECU is remapped. A turbocharger does not automatically guarantee a power increase without proper tuning.

How do you choose the right turbo ?

Check the part number engraved or marked on the turbocharger dthe original, then compare it with the OEM and manufacturer’s part numbers listed on this sheet. Also check the make, model, generation, engine type and power output in hp, theYear the mounting code and the engine code, where available. Having the same engine is not always enough to confirm compatibility.
