Performance & Application
This CHRA is designed for T3/T4E-based turbo systems where the compressor and turbine wheel combination already matches this ball bearing configuration. It supports up to 450HP, making it suitable for serious street and performance builds looking to retain proven turbo architecture while upgrading to ball bearing internals. Because it requires coolant circulation, it’s intended for setups already plumbed for water-cooled bearing support. This is a practical choice for enthusiasts seeking a direct core replacement rather than a full turbo swap.
