SW10005 LOBA 2.0 TFSI LO400 Upgrade Sport turbocharger
We are proud to present the ultimate and the original OEM+ Sport Turbocharger Upgrade for 2.0 TFSI engines. Evolved from the respected LO380 unit. Many try to replicate our recipes, none ever get close.
The powerful LO400 turbocharger is the result of many years of development and evolution.
In order to produce a LO400 we utilize a brand new factory BorgWarner KO4 turbocharger and optimize with 5-Axis CNC machine, modifying the compressor housing and inner surface for optimum flow, then 5-axis CNC modify the turbine housing to reduce exhaust gas back pressure and maximize throughput to increase output.
At the heart of our LO400 is the latest state of the art, bigger more efficient V3 LOBA Motorsport LO-2580 billet compressor, that is unique in design, geometry and size, but is extremely light in weight at only 39.8 Gram, yet still very strong. LOBA Motorsport billet compressor wheels are 25% lighter than some original used cast items, but still has greater strength and durability over a cast compressor. This combination gives ultimate turbo response and efficiency with reliability.
We also grind and lighten the turbine runner for increased flow and to reduce exhaust backpressure. We precision balance the turbine wheel/shaft and compressor wheel to far beyond oem tolerance as single parts, first to less than 0,05gmm then together. Last but not least is we modify the actuator and use a reinforced bearing for durabilty. The end result is less lag and better response than even a stock KO4 yet flowing much more airmass. The LO400 turbocharger is the best compromise between power output, turbo response and longevity.
The following LOBA specific optimizations were applied
•NEW V3 LOBA LO-2580 “Extended Tip” state-of-the-art billet compressor wheel
•5-axis CNC re-profiled compressor housing and backplate
•LOBA clipped turbine wheel
•optimized clearances
•modified actuator
•uprated bearing
•LOBA Superior Balancing
Depending on engine management settings, engine condition and other components utilized this turbo is capable and is producing upto 400PS and even more by some of our tuning partners.
