❓ FAQs

Do I need a tune?

Recommended. The turbo will bolt on and run on the OE calibration, but a quality ECU tune unlocks the flow and drivability gains.

What supporting mods help?

A healthy fuel system, clean intake/IC piping, good intercooler efficiency, and a free-flowing exhaust help realise the gains.

Is this truly bolt-on?

Yes. It’s outline-interchangeable with the OE turbo, so it fits factory location and connections.

Will it affect towing temps?

With the right calibration and supporting cooling, expect improved response and efficiency which can help manage EGTs.

What voids warranty?

Improper installation, oil starvation/contamination, failure to prime, foreign object damage, and unsafe/incorrect tuning.
