This hybrid turbo for, with a 1., 4 TDI engine, rated at 68 and 80 hp, features d an internal modification designed to optimise d air flow.. Depending on the chosen specification, it combines a high-flow MFS compressor wheel, a 360° bearing retainer and reprofiled housings.
Documented applications cover several models Seat, Skoda and Volkswagen. . Installation is advertised as requiring no modifications, but to make full use of the turbo’s performance characteristics, appropriate engine tuning is required.
This modification primarily affects the compressor impeller in order d to adapt its compression capacity and air flow rate d. Its performance depends on the engine configuration and the mapping used.
The Stage 2 combines a oversized compressor wheel with a d intake housing adapted. This configuration can move more d air under certain conditions, although the final power output cannot be determined independently of the engine tuning.
This modification affects both the compressor and turbine sides. Resizing the impellers and re-profiling the housings can alter both flow rate and response time; the result depends on the overall configuration.
A hybrid turbo is based on a turbocharger architecture designed for accommodate internal modifications. Depending on the upgrade package, these may involve the impellers, housings, thrust bearing and balancing.
The aim is d to adapt the compression capacity and air flow rate d. However, a hybrid turbo is not defined solely by the appearance of its compressor wheel: its geometry, the adaptation of the housings and the overall coherence of the assembly are decisive.
MFS stands for ‘Milled From Solid’, meaning a wheel machined from a solid block. This manufacturing process alone does not guarantee an increase in air flow d. A standard MFS wheel may retain a geometry similar to that d of the original.
An MFS impeller Performance is based on a geometry tailored to the tuning objective. On this product, the impellers listed are described as high-flow models and, for for Stages 2 and 3, as oversized.
A standard MFS impeller can perform just as well as an MFS impeller 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 support an increase in power only with appropriate engine tuning.
The compressor impeller draws in and then compresses the air sent to the engine. Its diameter, profile, height, width and the arrangement of its blades influence its aerodynamic behaviour and the amount d of air it can move.
The result also depends on the casings, the turbine wheel, the boost pressure and the engine management system. A larger wheel therefore does not automatically guarantee better performance and may alter the turbocharger’s response time.
The 360° bearing stop present on each stage helps to distribute the axial forces exerted on the rotating assembly. It does not replace d'proper lubrication or d'correct installation.
High-speed balancing is carried out at 150,000 rpm on a Cimat VSR test bench to minimise vibrations and mechanical stresses on the rotor. This balancing cannot compensate for inadequate lubrication, contamination or incorrect installation.
Adjustments to the mapping and boost pressure management are required for to make the most of the turbo’s characteristics. The wastegate must be adjusted during ECU reprogramming.
Depending on the level of tuning, the fuel injection, exhaust system, cooling system, intake system, clutch or gearbox must also be checked and, if necessary, adjusted. The hybrid turbo alone does not determine the engine’s final power output.
⚠️ WARNING — IMPORTANT BEFORE INSTALLATION
Identify and rectify the cause of the previous fault. Check the lubrication circuit, as well as the oil supply and return d, then check that all pipes are clean.
Check the intake and ensure that no foreign objects can reach the turbocharger. Carry out the priming procedure in accordance with the applicable recommendations and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Failure to rectify a lubrication fault may result in the turbocharger failing again.
Check the part number marked on the original turbo d and compare it with the OEM and manufacturer part numbers in this data sheet. Also check the make, model, generation, body style, engine type, power output,Year and engine code where available.
An identical engine specification does not always guarantee compatibility, as there may be several different set-ups for for the same vehicle.
⚠️ 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 data sheet. An identical engine specification does not always guarantee compatibility.

A single engine type may have been fitted with several different turbochargers depending on theYear, power output, engine version or technical evolution.. The application alone is therefore not always sufficient for to accurately identify the correct turbo.
Before ordering, note down the part numbers shown on the identification plate d of your old turbocharger. This may be d an OEM part number or d a part number from the turbo manufacturer.
Compare these part numbers with those listed on our product pages.. If in doubt, our team can help you verify the part number you are looking for before you place your order.
A loss of power, an unusual whistling noise, oil consumption d, abnormal smoke or poor engine performance may be linked to a turbocharger fault.
However, a fault that appears to be turbo-related may also stem d from a lubrication issue, d from contaminated oil, d from a foreign object, from the intake or exhaust systems, or d from another engine peripheral component.
It is therefore important to investigate the cause of the fault before fitting a new turbo or a new Cartridge.
Since 2012, ALFI TURBO has been assisting private individuals and professionals in identifying and replacing turbochargers.
A turbocharger failure may be the result d of another engine problem. Before fitting d a new turbo or Cartridge, identify and rectify the cause of the original fault to d avoid d damaging the new part.
