Performance & Application
The GTX4594R is built for large-displacement or high-boost applications targeting well beyond 900 horsepower, making it a natural fit for builders who have outgrown a GT42 or GT45 series turbo but want a bolt-compatible upgrade. Its dual ball bearing core supports quick spool response for a turbo of this flow capacity, while the high-flowing compressor housing and ported shroud design help extend the usable range before surge. With a choice of divided or undivided T4, T6 divided, or V-band inlet turbine housings, this turbo can be tailored to manifold style and driving demands, from track-focused response to sustained high-RPM top-end power.
Compatibility & Fitment
- Externally interchangeable with GT42 series turbochargers
- Externally interchangeable with GTX42 series turbochargers
- Externally interchangeable with GT45 series turbochargers
