I upgraded to an EQT Vortex turbo, so I now have this HPA OEM+ turbo for sale. It has no shaft play and I ran it for approx 20K miles without any issues on an EQT custom tune.
It comes with a calibrated wastegate, diverter valve, and HPA turbo muffler delete. This is a complete turbo drop in!
Here are the upgrades that HPA made to this turbo to make it more reliable than your standard OEM IS38:

It comes with a calibrated wastegate, diverter valve, and HPA turbo muffler delete. This is a complete turbo drop in!
Here are the upgrades that HPA made to this turbo to make it more reliable than your standard OEM IS38:
- Billet extended-tip compressor wheel – This allows for better spool and anti-surge characteristics while still being compatible with all brands of IS38 tuning
- Fully upgraded and redesigned bearing system – Our bearing system has been used on our 450 HP level Hybrid in the field for well over a year with 100% reliability. We are providing the exact same system but in an OEM+ design. This is insurance from the known weaknesses of the OEM turbo.
- Inconel wastegate flapper – We found on some OEM turbos after long-term heat cycling from high EGTs to cold, the wastegate itself physically bends. Some of them have snapped and ended up in the catalytic convertor. This is a concern especially for those customer who attend track days and drive their cars hard. We have upgraded all our wastegates with a highly heat resistant Inconel version to ensure this never happens.
- Pre-set wastegate actuator – All turbos will ship from HPA with the wastegate actuator set to the exact voltage needed for true plug-and-play installation. Setting the wastegate on MQB based cars is complex and requires access to a VAGCOM which not all customers have access to.
