OEM+ IS38 TURBO UPGRADE

HPA is proud to offer an OEM+ IS38 Turbo that addresses all the reliability concerns plaguing the OE IHI IS38. This is a perfect service part for blown IS38 turbos, or a great upgrade for GTI owners looking to upgrade their IS20.

UNRIVALED RELIABILITY

We have a considerable number of upgrades made to the VAG OEM IS38 to address all reliability concerns and believe our product will be one of the most reliable options out there.

The HPA OEM+ IS38 Turbo features a fully upgraded and redesigned bearing system. This bearing system has been proven out in the field with 100% reliability on our 450 HP level Hybrid Turbos. We are providing the exact same package in an OEM+ design. This is insurance from the known weaknesses of the OEM IHI turbo.

PRECISION ENGINEERED

Each turbo requires precision CNC machining of the intake and exhaust housings and include an HPA proprietary mixed-flow turbine wheel, and CNC machined billet compressor wheel with better spool and anti-surge characteristics while still being compatible with all brands of IS38 tuning


OEM+ QUALITY

We found on some OEM turbos after long-term heat cycling from high EGTs to cold, the wastegate itself physically bends. Some of them have snapped and ended up in the catalytic convertor. This is a concern especially for customers who attend track days and drive their cars hard. We have upgraded all our wastegates with a highly heat resistant Inconel version to ensure this never happens.

BOLT ON FITMENT

The HPA IS38 Hybrid turbo upgrade has everything you will need for a simple and quick installation including an HPA Turbo Muffler Delete, OEM diverter valve, OEM wastegate actuator, turbo inlet pipe, and silicone hose to adapt to the factory airbox, and OEM installation kit along with all hardware required. All turbos will ship from HPA with the wastegate actuator set to the exact voltage needed for true plug-and-play installation.

HPA OEM+ IS38 EQUIPPED GTI DELIVERS ON THE ULTIMATE ENDURANCE TEST!
Jamie Orr, Max Everhard, and Pedro Ruta Jr. set out to go from the top of South America to “fin del mundo” in Argentina in the Rallywagen, a slammed 400HP Volkswagen MK7 GTI. This GTI traversed nine countries, eleven border crossings, eight thousand five-hundred miles! They tackled the Andes Mountains, Bolivia salt flats, Brazil, Bubble Gun Treffen, local police, glaciers, the Strait of Magellan, and more.... All the way to the most southern paved road on our planet.

Love!
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It’s a little runny but honestly doesn’t bother me at all. Gives me a good glow with a little coverage! Better than any expensive ones I’ve used & layers well with or without makeup. Just wish it was a higher spf but definitely buying again.

I loved this sunscreen! Does not irritate.
Size: 1.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Matte
My skin is medium/dark tan with pink undertone and is sensitive/ rash prone. I purchased this because it was listed on folliculitisscout.com as a sunscreen that does not cause skin irritation. It does not irritate at all and does not have any ingredients that would flare eczema / rosacea/ psoriasis/seborrheic acne/ etc. This sunscreen is very much like a sheer foundation. ( I chose matte) I was afraid it might look too much like makeup, which I really didn't want. I wanted a natural look without having the ghost pale look of sunscreen. This was perfect for my skin. Blended in perfectly without looking like sunscreen or makeup. It has a very nice finish. It is described as matte, but I would call it a natural finish, not too overly matte. I took five different face sunscreens on my most recent vacation and ended up using only this. It is pricey but good! I will be wearing this all summer.
