lS38 Turbo Upgrade for VW Golf 7 MK7.5 GTi Audi A3 S3 (8V) 1.8т 2.от (MQB)

Upgrade available for the VW Mk7 / Mk7.5

Golf, GTI, and Audi 8V A3. Give your German-

engineered performance car the power the

Golf R, Audi S3, and TTS come equipped with

from the Audi / VW factory! This is an OEM

turbo for those machines

This turbocharger is a direct bolt-on

replacement for your factory IS12 or IS20

turbo. The only additional modification

required is a software upgrade

(tune/calibration) to match the turbo

upgrade. It is a 100% brand new OEM factory

IS38 turbocharger and the latest revision

With this turbocharger added to your VW or

Audi, you'l be able to achieve your

horsepower goals. After installing this bolt-

on, drop-in turbo you can expect to gain up to

+149 FT-LBS of torque and +170 WHP

bringing the power numbers up to 397hp

403ft-lbs with proper tuning, exhaust system,

intercooler, and intake.

The 2 most common turbos swapped for the

IS38 are the IS12 and IS20 turbos. The IS12

turbo is mounted from the factory on VW and

Audi 1.8t MQB engines, and the IS20 is

mounted on 2.0t lower output MQB engines,

When upgrading any of the following turbos

you will need to install new software on your

engine's computer to properly run the vehicle

with an IS38 turbo on it.

WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN

UPGRADING TO AN IS38

TURBO?

When properly tuned the IHI IS38 turbo will

give you more power. Oftentimes people are

concerned that a larger turbo will cause more

turbo lag. While this is a legitimate concern,

the IS38 is not drastically larger and will only

result in a few hundred RPM difference for

max boost, which is hardly noticeable in a

real-world application.
