GARRETT GT JOURNAL BEARING.
The Garrett Journal Bearing GT cartridge gives better damping and control over shaft motion allowing enhanced reliability for both everyday and extreme driving conditions. The bearing system in the GT turbocharger allows for improved shaft stability and less drag throughout the speed range. In Fact the GT Shaft motion has decreased by 20%, which greatly improves the durability of the bearing system.
THRUST BEARINGS
GT Turbochargers have an increased load bearing capacity , up to 35% more then T-Series turbos. Additional load capacity provides greater resistance to thrust bearing failure, especially when the combination of an oversized compressor wheel is used (compared to the Turbine wheel).
While T-Series turbos typically contain 54 components, GT turbos have an average of only 29. The 45% decrease in parts diminishes the opportunity for failure and results in smoother operation.
GT AERODYNAMICS.
New compressor and turbine blade designs have improved the overall efficiency of both sides of the turbocharger. The result is an engine that spools up to boost quicker with reduced losses in the system (i.e. your engine does not have to work as hard for the same boost level).
WHEEL TRIMS
The GT Range has several more wheels trims then the T range, enabling a more accurate match of turbocharger to engine that will in turn result in optimum performance.
Todays team of over 850 engineers worldwide are working endless hours to further improve the reliability, durability and efficiency of the GT product line.
