The SXE line of turbos is the latest innovation in turbochargers. The SXE turbos comes standard with 360 thrust bearings for longer turbo life and able to withstand higher boost levels and drive pressures. The SXE line also comes standard with a billet wheel for quicker spool up and increased airflow. The turbos require a T4 mount. They will not mount on a stock turbo platform. The SXE turbos come as a "super core". A super core turbo is without an exhaust housing. This allow some people to reuse their housing if coming from a turbo that has a compatible housing. If you need a housing simply choose the one you need from the add on menu above.
SX-Enhanced turbos redefine performance, durability and value for modern turbochargers. SXE turbos utilize latest generation billet compressor wheels, updated turbine wheel aerodynamics and up-rated journal bearings with 360 degree thrust assemblies. Borg Warner engineers started with their 91mm EFR9180 compressor wheel design, trimmed to 72% and 64.5mm for an airflow rate of 94lb/min. This all new wheel is packaged in a purpose built SXE compressor housing with ported-shroud inlet and speed sensor port. It is paired with a traditional Airwerks 80mm Inconel turbine and flexible housing options. Smaller overall dimensions than the EFR9180 and higher airflow rates make this an excellent match for high-boost and high-power applications. Oil-Cooled Journal Bearing only.
