What Is Billet Compressor Wheel and Why It Is Better?
The turbocharger compressor wheel plays an important role in delivering high-pressure air to the intake manifold, resulting in more power. Traditional compressor wheels are made from cast aluminum which results in higher mass and lower fatigue life when compared to the lighter weight, stronger, Billet Compressor Wheel.
Billet compressor wheels are made from a single block of forged billet aluminum and machined on 5 axis impeller CNC machines to an extremely high level of precision.
More Efficiency
Billet construction allows aluminum compressor fins to be much thinner than a cast steel alloy wheel, less blade thickness make a greater efficiency range, the more efficient a wheel is the lower the intake temperature.
More Air Flow
Machined by 5 axis impeller CNC the blades can be designed much more complicated to increase blade surface area, which can flow more air into the engine.
More Durability
By using forged billet aluminum to avoid porosity issues, won’t have air bubbles to create weak spots. it makes billet compressor wheel much more durability than cast compressor wheel.
