By extending the ends of the compressor wheel, BorgWarner has effectively
increased the pressure ratio, efficiency and flow of the entire compressor. This gives the S200, S300 & S400 pressure ratios and efficiencies that can
normally only be had with larger, slower spooling turbos.
The extended fins do not hamper spool-up. The compressor wheel is designed to
remove excess weight, reducing overall rotating mass. Of particular importance
is the reduction of weight at the outer edges which is a major factor for
reducing inertia. The weight reduction and where it is reduced allows these
compressor wheels to spool FAST. Another factor that increases the efficiency of the turbo as well as overall
flow is the height of the compressor wheel blades. The BorgWarner extended tip
version is over 20% taller than the standard 50 trim. The theory that the longer
the air stays on the blades the more boost you can run and the more air it will
flow thus improving the aerodynamics of the turbo. This extended tip compressor
wheel is rated at more than 55 lbs/min vs. the standard 50 trim at only 49
lbs/min. Turbocharger Name - S362
