This is where you will find upgraded turbochargers that make more boost and can handle higher power levels. If your stock turbos are worn, it is a perfect time to look into upgrading the factory snails with something larger.
VTT S55 GC Turbochargers. GC stands for “Game Changers” and that is exactly what these do! They bring a fully new casting Stainless Steel turbine manifold/housing, all new compressor housing with single-piece high flow inlet, as well as Vargas' tried, and true V2 GC CHRA with a Mar-M246 GTX28 profile turbine wheel, and custom compressor wheel. These turbos have NO core charges, keep your stock turbos, sell them, hold them if you want to go back to stock, etc. The turbos will come with custom VTT silicone inlet hoses to mate up with all inlets on the market making them 100% plug, and play. There is no better, more powerful, or well thought out upgrade on the market at any price point! WHP Level supported (with proper fuel, upgrades, and tuning): 800WHP S55 GC turbocharger Features: Mar-M246: Every set of GC Turbochargers comes with a Mar-M26 Superalloy turbine wheel for unmatched durability Upgraded thrust: Every set of stage GC turbos comes with a performance upgraded thrust to extend the life of the turbochargers. Billet Compressor wheels: Billet compressor wheels are used to maximize flow per shaft revolution GC+ Compressor option available 15-20% flow increase over Standard Billet GC Wheel The turbine housing is cast from 316 Stainless Steel We also suggest picking up the Turbo Installation Kit. This kit includes: 2 – Exhaust manifold gaskets 20 – Exhaust manifold nuts 2 – Oil Drain Gaskets 2 – Oil drain O-rings 4 – Oil Feed O-rings 6 – Coolant connection O-rings 2 – Turbo to downpipe gaskets 2 – Downpipe to Exhaust gaskets

VTT is hitting the ground running in 2023 with the F8X platforms. We are proud to introduce our “GCMAX” evolution of our insanely popular and record-holding GC Series of S55 turbocharger upgrades. We took what we learned from those, and take these to the next level! We increased all the internal flow channels, optimized AR ratios, maxed out the inlet size at 2.5', and increased the compressor wheel to 67mm. Last but not least, the biggest difference maker! We had to completely retool our turbine housings to take our 54mm G25 series turbine. This wheel absolutely outflows everything on the market and is what we use on our G8X S58 GC+ and F9X M5/8 GC. This wheel is proven to spool faster and flow more than any other wheel in its size range. This is the KEY to making big power while keeping back pressure down. This same wheel combo has seen 1000WHP on the F9X platforms and has more still on top. This setup, also went 9.44@146 in the G80 with a completely stock motor, and drivetrain. If you are looking to take your F8X to the next level whether built motor or stock without breaking the bank, THIS is the ticket. Don’t mess around with overpriced slow spooling twins, or the hassle of going single, ending up with a laggy car, and hacked-up connections. These bolt-on like FACTORY. A plug, and play 1000WHP option! Key Design Elements: All new castings with larger flow channels, AR Ratio changes, and improved Aero over Current GC/GC+ housings 310 Stainless Steel Turbine housing for the ultimate in heat, and corrosion resistance 54mm G25 Spec 9 blade Superalloy Mar-M 246 turbine wheel with the latest aero technology for increased flow while maximizing spool 67mm 9-blade “point-milled” compressor wheels with the latest aero technology to maximize flow while virtually eliminating surge Direct connection to ALL factory lines including oil, water, downpipe, and factory charge pipe Redesigned, and improved internal components including bearing housing oiling, and an upgraded thrust bearing NO CORE CHARGES. The new unit is sold to you outright. Keep your old unit in case you ever want to go back to stock. Or sell it to recoup your investment -it’s up to you! No long lead times; once fully released production units will be on the shelf for same to next-day shipping (please inquire about stock levels when ordering) Full 12-month unlimited mileage/No Hassle Warranty. If you have an issue we will replace the unit no questions asked Turbocharger Purchase includes: 1 – VTT set “GCMAX” turbochargers 1- VTT set of “GCMAX” Silicone intakes As with any turbocharger upgrade it should be coupled with complimenting upgrades such as fuel system upgrades, intake, downpipe, intercooler, tune, etc. While you will see gains going from stock turbo to a GCMAX with no other changes, to realize the full potential of the upgrade other parts/tune must be added.
