This turbocharger features a journal bearing type, which is known for its reliability and ability to handle high rotational speeds. The cooling system utilizes both oil and coolant to maintain optimal operating temperatures, reducing wear and extending service life. The included wastegate actuator helps regulate boost pressure, preventing over-boost conditions that can damage the engine.
Common Applications and Problem Solving
- Restores engine power loss caused by worn or damaged turbochargers
- Addresses issues related to oil starvation and overheating
- Replaces turbochargers with damaged compressor or turbine wheels
- Improves air and fuel delivery efficiency for Subaru Impreza models
- Helps maintain emission compliance with OE-matched performance
Installation Notes and Maintenance Tips
Before installation, inspect the engine for any underlying issues that may have caused turbocharger failure, such as excessive crankcase pressure or contaminated oil supply. It is recommended to replace the air filter and clean the entire air and exhaust system to prevent foreign object damage. Allow the engine to cool before shutdown to avoid oil starvation and premature bearing wear.

| Troubleshooting Tip | A decrease in engine power may be your first indication your turbocharger is damaged or has failed. |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Any nicks, scratches, or chips on either wheel are evidence foreign object damage caused by contaminants entering the airflow to or from the engine. |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Axial end play of the wheels and shaft in and out greater than the thickness of a sheet of paper indicates a worn thrust bearing due to excessive exhaust backpressure. |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Before a failed turbocharger is replaced the original cause of failure must be diagnosed and corrected to protect the new installation. |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Common signs of wear indicating replacement may be required: |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Worn engines with excessive blow by will result in crankcase pressurization, leading to oil leaking from the turbochargers internal seals. This may result in oil deposits in the intake manifold or smoke in the exhaust. This is not necessarily a sign of a failed turbocharger, but rather a sign that the engine needs to be rebuilt or replaced. |
