Introducing Turbosmart’s OPR V2 Turbocharger Oil Pressure Regulator, a cutting-edge solution launched in 2022 that ensures steady oil pressure for your turbocharger. This innovative regulator features a return-less design with an integrated 44 Micron Stainless Steel Mesh Oil Filter, providing robust performance and protection.
The OPR V2 is the first of its kind, utilizing Turbosmart’s proprietary flow control method to maintain optimal oil pressure regardless of engine oil variables like pressure or temperature. It guarantees a smooth oil flow to your turbocharger, safeguarding critical components such as Exhaust Drive, Back & Charge Pressures from excessive oil pressure that could lead to oil consumption and smoke.
Gone are the days of guesswork with restrictors and complex plumbing for oil pressure regulation. The OPR V2 simplifies the process with its return-less, inline installation and the convenience of a built-in 44 Micron Oil Filter. This filter, made of serviceable and replaceable Stainless Steel Mesh, adds an extra layer of defense against engine oil debris that could harm your turbocharger.
Key Features:
Innovative Patent Pending Design Durable Aluminium (6262 T6) Anodised Body & Valve Regulated Oil Pressure Compatible with Most turbochargers Integrated Stainless Steel (304) Mesh Oil Filter -4AN Inlet and Outlet for easy installation 1/8 NPT Sensor/Gauge Port for monitoring Directional Inlet Feed Logic for optimized performance Laminar Flow Output for consistent oil delivery Compatible with all Engine Oils Designed and Manufactured in Australia

Going single on your N54 powered vehicle? You are going to have a few ports that need blocking on your motor. These fittings are just the ticket allowing you to block one or both of the water fittings on the block, block the rear drain, adapt the front drain for -10 AN, and convert your push in style feed to a 1/8"NPT to fit any number of fitting options.
All fittings are Made from 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum with black anodizing for a long-lasting finish and come with the O-ring needed.

Vargas builds on their stock replacement turbo kits with this Stage 1 upgrade. Using the stock housings but with improved internals, this N54 turbo upgrade is good up to 470whp. Stage 1 is a hybrid of stock and upgraded internals - a new larger higher-flow cast compressor wheel matched with the stock turbine wheel. The Vargas stainless wastegate arms are also part of the rebuild. The Vargas standard rebuild is good up to 400whp so Stage 1 gives you a more capable turbo system to match your upgrade goals.
Vargas Turbo Technologies has been in business since 1979, offering rebuilt and re-engineered turbo solutions. With the N54, they identified a need for both cost-effective turbo replacements and proven turbo upgrades. The biggest complaint on N54 turbos is the rattle from the wastegates. The factory wastegates have actuator arms that lose their tension very easily, resulting in an annoying rattle. N54 wastegate rattle is the biggest complaint we hear from our customers. Vargas rebuilds each turbo assembly with OEM internals and replaces the actuator arm with a stainless steel arm of their own design. Because the Stage 1 uses stock BMW/Mitsubishi turbo housings, all of the stock turbo plumbing and intake hoses will match up. It's recommended that the rest of the system be upgraded to handle your tuning goals. The final Vargas rebuilt turbos are better than the factory rebuilds and at a lower cost!
Two other upgrades are also offered for Stage 1 -
Silicone inlet and turbo manifold pipes are also strongly recommended as upgrades over the stock plastic and aluminum pipes. Since both are prone to cracks, the silicone will be a lot stronger and almost no chance of a disappointing boost leak. Turbo replacement is the best time to add the silicone hoses. There are two styles of turbo inlet pipes - with stock diverter valves (DV) or with aftermarket blow-off valve (BOV). For the turbo manifold, there is no standardized connection to the intercooler so you will need to make note of which type you have and select the appropriate adapter from the options list.
Option A (+$25) - 2.5" and 90* turn up from the intercooler (CPE, AA, ER Sport, CXRacing)
Option B - 2.5" and angled up from the intercooler (AD Engineering, ETS, Helix, Cobb, ER Compeition)
Option C (+$25) - 3.0" and angled up from the intercooler (VRSF)
Option D (+$25) - 2.75" and angled up from the intercooler (Wagner EVO)
Option E (+$50) - 3.0" and straight out from the intercooler (AA Race)
Option F (+$25) - 2.5" and straight out from the intercooler (Forge)
Option G (+$15) - 3.0" and straight up from the interooler (AMS)
Install Kit - an Install Kit is also offered that includes all of the additional parts and pieces that will need to be replaced during this install (gaskets, hardware, etc).
Oil Recommendation - modern engine oil is formulated for emissions and to be environmentally friendly. The additives in current oil lowers the oil's ability to withstand high temperatures and stresses, lowering its shear strength and its lubricating properties. Vargas recommends oils with high ZDDP (zinc and phosphorus) content that will better protect and cool the turbo bearings. Examples of high-zinc oils are Red Line Race, Red Line Euro, Motul 300V Racing, Joe Gibbs Racing, Valvoline VR-1 oil, and most Diesel-spec oils that you can buy off-the-shelf. Some oils, especially the Race type, will need more frequent oil changes and may be harmful to catalytic converters.
WHP rating: 470. This rating is used to compare various stage of Vargas turbo kits. There is no advertised horsepower gain with this kit as it depends on your other mods and tuning. The rating is provided as a reference to use in your tuning planning. Custom N54 tuning is recommended to match these turbos to your existing mods and upgrades.
