What is a hybrid turbo ?

A hybrid turbo retains an architecture suited to the intended installation whilst undergoing targeted internal modifications. Depending on the course, these may cover the compressor wheel, its dimensions, the geometry of the blades, the re-profiling of the housing, the thrust bearing or balancing.

The aim is d’adjust the compression capacity and flow rate’ dturbocharger air. A hybrid turbo is not defined solely by the appearance of its impeller: its mechanical and aerodynamic performance depends on all its components.

MFS compressor wheel: standard or Performance ? ?

MFS stands for ‘Milled From Solid’, meaning a wheel machined from a solid block. This manufacturing process does not, on its own, guarantee an increase in throughput dair. A standard MFS wheel can retain a geometry equivalent to that d’origin’.

An MFS wheel Performance can be designed with a geometry suited to the intended application, for example a specific profile, diameter or blade configuration, provided that these details are documented.

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 only lead to an increase in power if accompanied by appropriate engine tuning.

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 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 turbine section, the boost pressure and the engine tuning. A larger wheel is therefore not automatically more suitable for every application and may affect response time.

Reliability and balancing of the hybrid turbocharger

The 360° stop fitted to all three stages helps to distribute the axial forces acting on the rotating assembly. It does not exempt d’proper lubrication nor d’a compliant installation’.

Every documented preparation benefits from d’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, without compensating for a fault d’installation or doil supply.

Engine remapping and tuning

It may be necessary to adjust the engine management system for make the most of the hybrid turbo’s features. 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 during fitting and remapping. No increase in power is automatic without the appropriate configuration.

How do you choose the right turbo ?

Check the part number marked on the turbocharger dthe original, then compare the OEM and manufacturer part numbers. Also check the make, model, generation, engine type and power output in hp, the assembly period and the engine code. Having the same motor does not always guarantee compatibility.
