Is a hybrid turbo better than a normal turbo?

A hybrid turbo, if designed properly, will allow the extra flow and pressure to be achieved at a safe and reliable turbine speed and at higher compressor efficiencies. So, more flow means more air, hopefully at a cooler temperature, which you can then add more fuel to and hey presto… more power!

Is a hybrid turbo good?

So why go for a hybrid turbo? The answer is simple… best performance with maintained reliability. The whole point of a hybrid is that it is designed to produce a greater mass of air at the same speed (boost pressure) and therefore you can add more fuel and get more power without increasing the speed of the turbine.

Is there a hybrid turbo?

A hybrid turbocharger is an electric turbocharger consisting of a high-speed turbine-generator and a high speed electric air compressor. The turbine and compressor are high-speed aero machines, as in a conventional turbocharger.

What is a T3 T4 hybrid turbo?

T3/T4 hybrid turbochargers are made with a T3 turbine section, and a T4 compressor section, The T3/T4 offers the low inertia and fast boost response of the light weight T3 and the high airflow of the T4 compressor, ideal for your next turbo upgrade.

How do I upgrade my turbo?

How do hybrid turbos work?

Many hybrid turbochargers will look identical to standard units from the outside. The changes occur inside, by using different aerodynamic configurations, both in the compressor and turbine wheels, and different bearing systems to support the increased loads.

Is a 38 hybrid a turbo?

The HPA IS38 Hybrid Turbo features a custom compressor and turbine wheel design capable of holding up to 500HP* with a flat torque curve from 3800 RPM to redline! Our turbo is a natural upgrade to IS38, IS20, and even IS12 equipped cars where the OEM units lose breath mid-way in the RPM range.

Why is it called hybrid turbo?

Hybrid Turbos Turbo Technics have been making hybrid performance turbochargers since as early as 1985. The term ‘hybrid’ simply refers to the fact that a ‘hybrid turbo’ consists of a mixture of parts from different turbochargers, usually based on an original unit for a specific application.

What’s the difference between a T3 and T4 turbo?

Generally speaking T3 class turbos can deliver enough air volume for applications in the 200 to 300HP range. The bigger T4 turbo has a larger turbine on the exhaust side and larger turbine fins in intake compressor side.

What is better T3 or T4 turbo?

In general, T3 class turbos can deliver air volume for applications in the 200 to 300 HP range. On the other hand, the T4 turbo has a larger turbine on the exhaust side and larger turbine fins on the intake compressor side. This means that T4 can generate more air at full boost to achieve more horsepower than T3.
