JM Turbo Cooper - Extreme GTD47 K04 Turbocharger Upgrade

JM Turbo Cooper offers the Extreme GTD47 K04 turbocharger upgrade designed to deliver outstanding reliability and high-performance gains for the 2007+ MINI Cooper. This upgrade is a top choice for Mini and Peugeot owners, providing exceptional power output for applications exceeding 280hp.

Update: The improved gasket design on the back side now features a seamless gasket inset, and the package includes a new gasket for your convenience.

The JMTC Extreme GTD47 upgrade boasts a high-pressure, high-flow, dual-scrolling turbo that features a substantial 50mm compressor wheel. This design ensures maximum boost at the top end of the RPM range, making it ideal for track, off-road, and extreme street applications. The large GTX exhaust turbine complements the setup, delivering extra boost at high RPMs and preventing torque loss compared to the stock K03 turbine.

Whether you seek extreme track performance, drag strip dominance, or unrivaled street upgrades, this turbocharger is the perfect choice. It offers impressive torque and durability, outperforming many other options on the market. To fully unleash its potential, we recommend pairing it with one of our aftermarket exhaust systems.

It's important to note that to harness the additional power, a custom tune is required. Running without a tune will result in minimal to no HP gain.

Estimated Power Gains:

• Approximately 60hp with a tune, intercooler, downpipe, cold air intake, new plugs, basic maintenance, and carbon blasting/cleaning.
• 120hp or more with all the above modifications, plus a ported head, larger valves, ICE pipe, intercooler, and a 3"+ or larger exhaust system.

Extreme GTD Upgrade Features:

• Brand new turbo!
• 47mm billet compressor
• High-flow GTX exhaust turbine
• High-strength K04 internals
• Upgraded 360-degree bearing
• Designed for higher pressure
• High-temperature alloy turbine housing
• Dual-scrolling turbine housing
• Water-cooled bearing housing

For engine and turbocharger reliability, JMTC recommends a 3.0" or larger downpipe/exhaust size for the GTD turbochargers. Please avoid using the stock downpipe or stock-sized catalytic converter.

The OEM intake boot can be used with the removal of the inner sleeve for N14 engines. For N18 engines, the OEM boot at the turbo connection will need to be heated and expanded slightly, which can be done with a heat gun. This turbocharger also fits AEM intake, NM Eng intake, and Forge Intake (Boot). Please note that the hose might need to be warmed and stretched over with a hose expander.

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 -

• TD04 thrust bearing upgrade - stronger and 30% more surface area than the stock thrust bearing for better bearing life and less stress
• Billet Aluminum compressor wheel - stronger and more efficient compressor wheel than stock for 20% better airflow

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.
