What is a hybrid turbo ?

A hybrid turbo retains a suitable turbocharger design for to receive modified internal components. Depending on the design, modifications may relate to the compressor impeller, its dimensions, the geometry of the blades, the casings, the turbine impeller, the thrust bearing system or the balancing.

The aim is d'adjust the compression capacity and flow rate' d'air at a given engine configuration'. A hybrid turbocharger is therefore not defined solely by the appearance of its impeller, but by the consistency of its mechanical characteristics.

MFS compressor wheel: standard or Performance ? ?

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

A standard MFS wheel can retain a geometry equivalent to that d'origin'. An MFS wheel Performance may feature a blade profile, dimensions or configuration suited to the preparation task, such as the 11+0 configurations documented here.

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 contribute to power development when combined with appropriate engine tuning, although it does not, on its own, guarantee results.

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 d'the amount of air it can move under certain conditions'.

The result also depends on the compressor housing, the turbine section, the boost pressure and the engine tuning. A larger wheel may affect response time and range d'optimal use; it therefore does not automatically guarantee better performance'.

Reliability and balancing of the hybrid turbocharger

The documented 360° stop helps to distribute the axial forces acting on the rotating assembly. It must operate with adequate lubrication and does not make the turbocharger immune to fitting faults or d'oil supply'.

Each course listed offers d'high-speed balancing at 150,000 rpm on a Cimat VSR test bench'. This procedure is designed to minimise vibrations and mechanical stresses on the rotor, without compensating for inadequate lubrication, contamination or incorrect installation.

Engine remapping and tuning

Making use of characteristics d'A hybrid turbo may require adjustments to the engine mapping and boost pressure control'. The wastegate must be adjusted during the fitting and remapping of the ECU.

Depending on the level of preparation, the fuel injection, exhaust, cooling, intake, clutch or transmission may need to be checked or adjusted. A hybrid turbo does not automatically guarantee a power boost without the appropriate engine set-up.

How do you choose the right turbo ?

Check the reference number engraved or marked on the turbocharger d'original', then compare it with the OEM and manufacturer part numbers listed on this sheet. Also check the make, model, generation, body style, engine type and power output in hp, theYear the mounting code and the engine code, where available.

The fact that two motors are identical does not always guarantee compatibility, as there may be several different configurations for the same vehicle.

If you are unsure about the fitment or the type of cooling system, please contact us with the full part number of your turbocharger d'origin'.
