BorgWarner Porsche 997TT BV50 Stock Replacement Turbo

BorgWarner was the first manufacturer in the world to offer VTG turbochargers for gasoline engines in mass production. The porsche 997 BV50 turbo is the direct result of this effort. BV turbos employ exotic materials and unique designs making them optimally tuned to the extreme thermal loads found in high performance gasoline turbocharged engines. BorgWarner has developed a robust VTG mechanism that works reliably even in the toughest of conditions and also employs a CFD-Optimized vanepack design that provides excellent efficiency.
