BOOSTED B5455 T3 .83 Internal Wastegate Turbocharger 660HP, Natural Cast Finish T3 Inlet Flange, Ford 5-Bolt Exhaust Flange

In addition to our current range of Boosted B5455 turbochargers. We have this internal wastegate option witha T3 .82 rear housing. This turbo is designed as a good bolt on upgrade option for Nissan Skyline, Holden VL withstandard low mount turbo manifold. The internal wastegate rear housing is 20mmlonger above the T3 flange mounting plate to help clear the factory manifold. It features a Ford XR6 5 bolt dump pipe flange which pairs well with the Aeroflow Performance Ford XR6 to V-BandAdapter to convert the 5-bolt flange to a 3” V-Band tohelp to fabricate a new exhaust.

This turbo is great for smaller engine displacements from 2L up to 3.5L with the B5455 rated up to 660 engine horsepower.

The Boosted B5455 utilizes a Point Milled Billet compressor wheel which is manufactured from 7075 aluminium. Not only is the billet wheel upgraded from theold days of cast wheels but ifyou look closely at the finishof the compressor blades you will notice the point milling.Most turbochargers have a smooth surface finish known asflank milling. This is where blade surfaces are milled in asingle pass on the CNC machine. This is economical and saves time but performancewise is lacking compared to point milling. Point milling brings the CNC tool over the compressor blade using multiple passes. This is a complicated process which increases the machining time and cost. The Point milled wheel provides increased flow (cfm) and reduces exducer tip speed allowing the turbo to spool faster, resulting in a much more efficient turbocharger. This point milling can increase flow (cfm) up to 15-35% depending on each size compressor wheel.

The 9-blade turbine wheel is constructed from Inconel, a Super Alloy that maintains strength duringprolonged exposure to extremely high exhaust gas temperatures. When comparing this to the first generation 5455 which has a 10-blade turbine wheel. By dropping just one blade from this turbine wheel you can see somegreat results in top end power. Combine this with a smaller diameter center shaft that reduces the weight. You end up with a less restrictiveflow of exhaust gasses allowedto exit out the rear housing at a more efficient rate.

Each B5455 turbocharger is a dual ceramicball bearing cartridge designed to prolong the turbo lifespan and improve shaft balance. Our ball bearing design reduces the required amount of oil to provide adequate lubrication. This lower oil volume reduces the chance for seal leakage. Also,the ball bearing is more tolerant of marginal lube conditions, and diminishes thepossibility of turbocharger failure on engine shut down. Boosted ceramic ball bearings are sourced from Germany or Japan depending on model. Our ball bearing cartridge utilizes an external restrictor, included with eachturbocharger is a turbo oil feed fitting which has an 1mm restrictor inside the fitting.

You will noticethat we have two water ports on each side of the turbochargers core. This is great for installing water lines in compact areas and gives a better option for plumbing. Water cooling improves mechanical durabilityand lengthens the turbocharger's life. Water cooling's main benefit actually occurs after the engine has been shut down. Heat stored in the turbine housing and exhaust manifold "soaks back" into the center section of the turbocharger after shutdown.

AeroflowPerformance Boosted turbochargers are designed specifically for the enthusiast who wants optimal performance at a competitive price. Boosted Turbochargers have a range of specific turbos to meet your power goals, driving style and budget. Boosted turbocharger'sutilise billet compressor wheels and feature the latest aerodynamic design that maximises horsepower and boostresponse throughout the rev range. The turbine wheel is constructed from Inconel, a Super Alloy that maintains strength during prolonged exposure to extremely high exhaust gas temperatures.

Boosted Turbocharger's are available in 360° journal bearing, dual and triple ceramic ball bearing cartridges designed toprolong the turbo lifespan andimprove shaft balance. BoostedTurbocharger's are also available in oil/water or oil cooled versions to help keep temperatures to a minimum. Theboosted range of turbos are available with a ported shroudcompressor cover housing whichincreases surge resistance andprovides reliable, continuous power throughout the engine's RPM. Boosted turbochargers areavailable for a direct bolt-onfor some Ford's and Nissan's with further models in development. Boosted turbos are available in natural aluminium or high temp black compressor cover options.
