Thread: Comp Turbo?

Anyone heard of them? Got some sweet looking turbos. I'm looking into getting this one instead of a Precision. Comp Turbo - CT4 6262 Billet

3 ceramic ball bearings with a billet wheel sounds pretty good to me

How do they pull off Water cooled only. Guess its lubed by coolant like a water pump

That is neat, I guess since ball bearings have a lot less friction they don't need the oil technically. Man imagine the headache that you save by not having to run oil through it.

Haha its actually an oil-less turbo. It has a sealed center cartridge with the bearings submerged in oil. They say that oil is good for like 20k miles or something and you have to rebuild them. Something like that anyways. Maybe they can just change the oil in the cartridge or something, I don't know. You definitely have to pay a pretty penny for one, they aren't cheap.

I plan to get the ball bearing turbo but have it oil fed from the motor with a .030 restrictor and inline filter. They will pretty much build you a custom turbo if you want.
