Garrett GT-X Gen2: State-of-the-Art Turbochargers
Garrett is one of the best manufacturers of premium-quality turbochargers. With the GT-X series, Garrett further developed and improved on their classic, the GT-R series. The second generation of the GT-X has upped the ante again. This further development enables you to achieve an even greater performance and a better and earlier response with the same boost. This is made possible by the new Gen II Aero compressor wheel. Owing to the new wing design, it has an even wider map. The compressor housing was also advanced: Through a new CNC machining process, it has become even more flow-enhancing. It only takes a few seconds to install a speed sensor on the GT-X turbochargers of the second generation. The plug goes out, the sensor goes in – done!
GT-X Gen2 turbocharger in various configurations
All turbos of the new series are delivered with a heat-resistant exhaust side. You can buy the Garrett GT-X Gen2 turbochargers from us with different ports, hp values and A/R ratios, for example:
- 0.57 A/R
- 0.64 A/R
- 0.72 A/R
- 0.86 A/R
- 1.01 A/R
- 1.06 A/R
The driving experience with these turbos is simply incredible. The improved response is outright fun, and the performance opens up completely new possibilities.
The Garrett GTX358 2R Gen2: Action up to 900 hp
The Garrett GTX358 2R Gen2 is a turbocharger of the latest generation. It is designed for performances of up to 900 hp and makes tuning fans happy. It comes with a CNC-milled Gen2 Aero aluminum compressor wheel with a new wing design and an Inconel turbine wheel. The exhaust housing withstands even the most extreme temperatures with ease. The turbo has double ball bearings, making the response of this second generation far better than that of the first generation.
Perfect Response: Ball Bearing Turbos
The ball bearings in your turbocharger make the rotating equipment rev up considerably faster. You achieve a better response with the same charger geometry than with slide bearings and you can build up the required boost more quickly. Because bearings and gaskets are not designed for the same oil pressure, you should always use an oil restrictor when driving a ball bearing turbo.
