Product Details

Cardone Turbocharger Cartridge 2N-1078CHR is part of the Turbocharger Cartridge line, focused on repairing the internal core of a failed turbo rather than replacing the full housing assembly. This approach supports faster service when the damage is isolated to the cartridge, while preserving the original compressor and turbine housings. For Subaru Forester and Subaru Impreza turbocharger repair, this cartridge provides a standard-grade, new replacement built to OE-style specifications.

This part cross-references Subaru 14411AA7109L for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Turbocharger noise caused by worn internal bearings
• Loss of boost from cartridge wear or internal damage
• Oil contamination related to turbo core failure
• Coolant-cooled turbo service where the cartridge is the failed component
• Restoration of turbocharger operation on Subaru Forester and Subaru Impreza models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the original turbocharger housings are serviceable before installation. Clean oil and coolant passages thoroughly, and confirm the replacement cartridge matches the journal-bearing, coolant-cooled configuration. Fitment includes 2009-2013 Subaru Forester and 2009-2010 Subaru Impreza; special order availability applies to the listed applications.
