This Garrett Ball Bearing CHRA is built for serious T3/T4 turbo owners who want the response and durability of ball bearing technology without starting from scratch. Fully assembled and dynamically balanced at the factory, it’s engineered as a straightforward core swap for anyone running an existing T-series turbo with a matching wheel combination. If you’re chasing quicker spool and tighter transient response on a proven T3/T4E platform, this is the core built to deliver it.

Performance & Application
This CHRA is designed for enthusiasts running a T3/T4E-based turbocharger who want to upgrade to Garrett ball bearing internals without sourcing an entirely new turbo. Because it’s fully assembled and balanced, the build process is simplified to swapping end housings rather than rebuilding a core from individual components. The T04E 50 trim compressor wheel paired with the stage III turbine wheel is tuned to deliver strong response while supporting solid mid-range power. It’s an ideal choice for anyone looking to modernize an existing T-series turbo with ball bearing performance while keeping the familiar T3/T4 housing architecture.
