Ceramic Ball Bearing Turbo Vs Journal Bearing
Garrett turbos fitted with cartridge ball bearings will spool up to 15 faster than those fitted with journal bearings.
Ceramic ball bearing turbo vs journal bearing. 6 with a properly designed manifold and properly selected turbo for your setup you can actually see better spool from the new journal bearing turbo s. The journal bearing has long been the brawn of the turbocharger however a ball bearing cartridge is now an affordable technology advancement that provides significant performance improvements to the turbocharger. Vehicles fitted with turbochargers containing ball bearing cartridges will experience stronger and sharper throttle response. Check out our newest video.
Ceramic ball bearing turbo. Hmmm actually cannot. Ball bearing designs will transmit that vibration through the turbo and to its impellers that can then amplify the vibration and destroy the bearings and the shaft and its components. Ceramic balls are less prone to expansion than steel balls which means bearings with ceramic balls will be more precise than steel bearings and produce less vibration.
This dramatically improves response resulting in a faster 0 60 mph boost speed. 2 slightly slower spool time than ball bearing turbo. The journal bearing 70mm that i had originally spooled a lot quicker but that was a 68 vs a 96 a r exhaust housing which obviously makes a difference. Garrett ball bearing turbochargers spool up 15 faster than traditional journal bearings.
1 longer cool down time for journal bearing turbo. The hardness of ceramic balls also allows them to crush any particles that make their way into the ceramic ball bearing so they don t cause damage to the races. This produces an improved response that can be converted to quicker 0 60 mph speed. On journal bearing designs the oil just like in your cars shocks is a shock and vibration absorber.
