Loading... Please wait...The factory TD04LR-15GK-6cm turbocharger is way to small for your 2.4L motor. The tiny turbine wheel and housing creates backpressure numbers greater than 60psi and makes it rather pointless to do anything other than an all out replacement. We tried some upgrades back in 2003 to the stock turbo's compressor wheel but we found it made only a little more power and created even more backpressure. Don't let any friend convince you that a Super Duper Stock Killer Upgrade will be perfect for you. Let your 2.4 breathe, replace the whole thing with a real sized turbo.
Our turbo kit includes a replacement manifold, turbocharger, external wastegate, and 3" O2 housing that will allow for endless possibilities. You have countless turbo options once you change out the stock turbo assembly to one of our AGP Big Turbo kits.
This kit is based around the Borg Warner S200 turbo line and packed into the right turbine and compressor housings, the ones that fit and work, and cast only by AGP. Turbo placement is a key variable in this design, because of the clearance with the engine and firewall. Rest assured, the turbo placement allows for enough room so you DO NOT have to "convince" your firewall. NO DENTING OR HACKING OF THE FIREWALL NEEDED with our kit. The "S" series turbos are not offered in a ball bearing center section, however with the Borg Warner Extended Tip Technology, they spool up very well for their size and power potential.
S251-RS - This turbo is the smallest in the S200 series of Borg Warner's Extended Tip compressor wheels, but don't let its size fool you. The 51mm compressor wheel flows at 48lbs/min and is recommended in the .48 A/R turbine housing. The .48 A/R housing allows this turbo to reach 20psi of boost around 3200rpm and will max out around 28psi and 475whp. This turbo is very well matched to a street car with stock internals. Compressor housing is 3" inlet and 2" outlet, non ported shroud.
S255-RS - The next step up is into the 55mm Extended Tip compressor coupled with the familiar S200 4" inlet ported shroud compressor housing. This turbo is rated at 50lbs/min and will make just shy of 500whp maxed out at 29psi. This turbo can be had in either the .48 or .63 A/R turbine housing, however we highly recommend the .48 for this street terror. Full boost is around 3400rpm. Compressor housing is 4" inlet and 2" outlet, ported shroud.
S256-RS (the most popular "S" series) will make 540whp and 535wtq at 30psi in the .63 A/R turbine housing. With a proper fuel setup, this turbo will max out 550whp. This is the OG "Extended Tip" Borg Warner turbo that has been going strong for the past 7 years. Full boost can be seen around 3600rpm in the .63 A/R turbine housing. Compressor housing is 4" inlet and 2" outlet, ported shroud.
S261-RS - The S261-RS is a true monster replacing the S360-RS and tipping the scales at 70lbs/min and showing near 660whp capability with the .63 A/R housing and full boost below 4000rpm. You can choose this turbo in a .63 or .82, however we recommend the .63 A/R for the best powerband. The .82 A/R option will squeeze another 30 more whp, however you will loose a good 500rpm in spool time. Surely a built engine and complete engine management solution will also be on your list when you choose the S261-RS. This is the largest offering we have in the "S" line for a bolt-on turbo kit. Compressor housing is 4" inlet and 2" outlet, ported shroud.
Reliability: A big question that we get alot is, "Can I have a reliable car with one of these turbo kits?" The answer is yes. As long as the car is safely tuned and has the proper supporting mods, then there is no reason that the car cannot be a perfect daily driver. Most owners report that gas mileage increases and the car has much better street manners than a bone stock SRT4. No more part throttle boost, boost spikes, crazy torque spikes, fluttering, surging or many other issues associated with the stock turbo. Power will come on nicely and pull hard all the way to redline. Boost is easy to control with any quality boost controller. The turbos will give years of life as long as they are fed quality oil and you prevent any foreign objects from entering them.
Modifications Needed to run an "S" kit:
-3" intake (the S255-RS,S256-RS, and S261-RS turbos have a 4" ported shroud inlet so you will need a 4-3 reducer)
-External Blow Off Valve Setup
-Fuel Upgrades
-3" exhaust
Fuel System: You will need more fuel to go along with the increased airflow of this big turbo. Our SCT Fuel Kit with a return line is a great start for you to manage the "S" series kits. 750cc injectors will suffice for the S251-RS and S256-RS, where 1000cc+ will be necessary with the 60 and 66.
Turbo Kit Includes: AGP T3/T4 manifold, Borg Warner S200 turbocharger with cast AGP Turbo turbine housings, compressor wheels with extended tips, AGP-38mm external wastegate, stainless steel dump tube, 3" stainless steel O2 housing, oil feed and drain lines, gaskets, nuts and bolts, Stainless Steel heatshield, overflow bottle.
Options: If you want some added flavor to your AGP kit, we can polish the compressor housing and/or heatshield. We also offer ceramic coating to the manifold, turbine housing, o2 housing, and dump tube in either black or silver. For those wanting to quiet down the wastegate dump, we offer a weld-on or bolt-on reroute kit.
