The Turbosmart TS-1 Supercore 8280C is the bearing cartridge and compressor stage of the 8280 C-frame turbocharger supplied without a turbine housing, so you can pair it with the turbine housing that suits your manifold flange and A/R target. It is oil cooled.

Key Features

  • Turbine housing sold separately, selected by turbine exducer size and frame
  • Proprietary dual ceramic ball bearing system for low rotating mass and fast transient response
  • 7+7 splitter-blade compressor wheel machined from 2618-T6 forged billet aluminum
  • Inconel turbine wheel for extreme exhaust gas temperatures
  • Lightweight aluminum compressor cover with anti-surge inlet, speed sensor provision and boost reference ports
  • Cast iron center housing with integrated compressor backplate
  • VSR speed balanced

Turbine Housing Compatibility

Turbosmart specifies its turbine housings by turbine exducer size and frame rather than by compressor size, and this cartridge uses a 80 mm turbine exducer in the C-frame. Housings for that exducer size are offered in V-band, T3 and T4 inlet styles across a range of A/R.
