What is a turbocharger?

A turbocharger is an air compressor that uses exhaust gases generated by the operation of an internal combustion engine to drive through a structure consisting of a stator and a rotor. Similar to mechanical superchargers, both increase the flow of air into the internal combustion engine or boiler, resulting in increased machine efficiency.

You can also call a dealership with your VIN number, and they have the ability to provide you with the OEM part number. You can email one of our turbo specialists at sales@fridayparts.com for further assistance on how to buy a turbocharger.

❗❗Don’t buy a turbocharger based on turbo model only, This is because different turbochargers may use the same type of turbo model.
