Building on everything we learned from the BB500, we've combined proven engineering with our latest turbocharger technology to develop the BB550+ for next-generation STI performance. Featuring a ceramic ball bearing system, the BB550+ delivers substantially greater horsepower at higher RPM while maintaining strong midrange performance.
At its core is a billet 2618 aluminum compressor wheel and an Inconel 713C turbine wheel, paired with carefully engineered housings designed for durability and high-flow performance. A larger 10cm turbine housing and 0.77 A/R compressor housing support the BB550+'s increased power potential, allowing it to continue building horsepower well into the upper RPM range.
We've also completely redesigned the wastegate actuator, incorporating a billet aluminum body, dual-port design, and heavy-duty steel mounting bracket. Together, these improvements deliver smoother wastegate operation, tighter boost control, and greater flexibility when dialing in your setup.
And like the BB450+, the BB550+ is a true bolt-on turbocharger. It retains the factory mounting location and is designed to work with stock-style connections and existing compatible supporting components. No cutting, custom fabrication, or extensive modifications under the hood required. Just serious power without the complications of a custom turbo installation.
For drivers ready to push their STI further, the BB550+ delivers significantly greater top-end performance while retaining much of the lower-RPM response of its predecessor.
