Saturn Ion Turbocharger

The Saturn Ion Turbocharger allows the small engine in this compact car to have more power and efficiency by forcing extra compressed air into the cylinders using otherwise wasted exhaust energy. The Turbocharger is installed in between the exhaust manifold and the intake. The turbine side spins thanks to hot gases. The compressor side rams cool air into the combustion chamber. It is this boost that drives up horsepower. Moreover, it also offers the benefit of leaner fuel use. The exhaust driven Turbocharger frees the crankshaft from extra drag and improves mileage as compared to a belt driven supercharger. However, users may experience a brief lag while pressure builds. The Ion has received updates that will be reflected in various model years, benefiting from the updated Turbocharger technologies. Twin scroll passages isolate exhaust pulses to reduce spool time, while variable geometry vanes reshape the airflow as the rpm climbs. Even electrically assisted units, which spin instantaneously to reduce lag and emissions, are on offer. All Saturn Performance Packages are based upon this proven Turbocharger cycle, which converts spent gas energy into a dense intake charge, providing lively, efficient driving that will make the Ion stand out among Saturn's other compact models.

Each OEM Saturn Ion Turbocharger we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
