Vargas Turbo has leveraged 30+years of experience to create their new "Game Changer Lite" turbochargers. Built with 100% new parts from the ground up, Vargas starts with a cast stainless steel housing, designed to fit into the stock location, with the full flow of a larger turbocharger. Every set of turbochargers includes an upgraded thrust system with a TD04L 9-blade compressor, as well as billet compressor wheels to maximize flow. With these new turbochargers, Vargas was able to design a setup to maximize power, flow, and most of all, reliability. In addition, this kit includes silicone turbo inlets designed to ease installation. Silicone hose is much stronger and more resistant to heat than the stock parts, meaning that you can build more boost and make more power without fear of your inlets failing. In addition, they don't collapse as easily under pressure. These important attributes make silicone inlets an ideal and necessary upgrade.

PFS is proud to offer a true drop-in 1000WHP+ capable LPFP for G -Series S58. This LPFP needs NO additional pumps, wiring harnesses, etc etc. It will support up to 800WHP on Ethanol percentages as high as E98 and will support much higher power levels with less E content as long as you have the octane to support it. For the pump, we start with a factory bucket, we modify it extensively to accept our custom PFS Brushless fuel pump. We then re-terminate the factory wiring to accept the new pump. No wiring splices, done the same way the factory does -the right way. Every single pump is then fully tested on our flow bench to ensure proper function before shipping -you’re going to be installing a product that has already proven itself. This pump is a true drop-in meaning you pull the factory unit out, install this pump, plug the factory plug into the hat, and you are done. The stock ECU controls the pump fully, and NO tune changes are required to take advantage of it. Brand new build: You keep your old pump, we send you a brand new PFS bucket

Ready to take your N55 to the next level? Don’t want to deal with core charges, long lead times, or restrictive factory housings? Look no further! VTT has you covered with our 100% new casting N55 “GC” and “GC+” turbocharger upgrade. We start by keeping the great design elements of the factory N55 turbo and removing the not-so-great ones such as the small factory inlet area, bearing housing oil structure, thrust bearing, and anything else we saw that could be improved upon. With the basics covered, we stepped it up a level adding proprietary VTT changes and finished off by having all these parts cast to OE quality. What this means for you is serious N55 power made easy; GCs are a drop-in turbocharger upgrade that supports over 600-700 WHP while maintaining factory-like spool and all factory connections including oil, water, downpipe, and charge pipe.
