Honeywell Transportation Systems announced this week at the 2017 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show that it is introducing Honeywell Garrett® G Series of aftermarket performance turbochargers capable of supporting up to 660 horsepower.

The Garrett G Series contains the latest innovations in turbocharger technology design, materials and aerodynamics to meet the aftermarket needs of hard core competitors.

To achieve this, Honeywell designers and engineers eliminated the need to work around inherited design characteristics supporting an existing Honeywell factory-installed turbocharger, and allowed for tailored performance features for competition needs and adding installation flexibility for a broad range of engine sizes.

“Best-in-class”

“The new Garrett G Series reflects the best-in-class engineering and manufacturing standards we have developed during our considerable sixty-year history, and our first-ever purpose-built competition turbos targeting the performance market from their design inception,” said Eric Fraysse, vice president and general manager of TS Aftermarket and Friction Materials Products.

“The Garrett brand has a legacy of enabling racing championships, and we’re committed to advancing the science of turbocharging for enthusiasts to help them cross the finish line first.”

New compressor wheel

At the heart of the Garrett G Series line-up is a forged and fully-machined compressor wheel; the new wheel and aerodynamics improve horsepower ratings, boost response, and efficiency when combined with the larger compressor housing.

A new Mar-M alloy turbine wheel has also improved aerodynamics and increased temperature resistance up to 1050° C and 1922° F.

A one-piece back plate and centre housing increases structural strength, and twin piston rings at both ends of the shaft reduce the likeliness of oil leakage to the seals at either end of the turbo.
