What Is a Billet Upgrade?
A billet upgrade refers to the use of high-quality, machined billet components in the construction of parts, such as turbochargers. The term "billet" means the part is made from a single block of material (usually aluminum or steel) that is machined down to the final shape, as opposed to being cast or forged.
Key Benefits of a Billet Upgrade:
Strength and Durability:
Billet components are stronger than cast parts because they have a denser, more uniform grain structure. This makes them better suited for high-performance and heavy-duty applications.
Precision and Customization:
CNC machining used for billet parts allows for more precise designs and better airflow optimization, enhancing turbo performance.
Improved Heat Resistance:
Billet materials often handle heat and pressure more effectively than cast alternatives, which is critical for turbochargers operating at high RPMs and extreme conditions.
What Does The Turbo Model Number Mean?
