This performance upgrade is an aftermarket modification designed to significantly enhance engine power output. It typically involves replacing the factory-installed turbocharger with a larger, more capable unit, along with supporting components. For example, vehicles with smaller engines seeking a substantial horsepower increase often utilize such systems.
The implementation of this upgrade can lead to improved acceleration, increased top-end power, and a more responsive driving experience. Historically, enthusiasts have pursued this type of modification to achieve greater performance gains than those offered by simpler modifications. This approach often requires careful tuning and potentially supporting modifications to other engine components.
