TTE460 N55 Upgraded Turbochargers

thirdlobe · 07-19-2017, 10:48 PM

Has anyone ever dealt with these turbos?

Never heard of them. Seems pricey, I'm going with Pure Stage 2.

I have seen them in the VW market as an upgrade and I don't see any mention of price.

So it looks like this turbo falls right between Pure's stage 1 and 2. I would hope the price reflects that too.

Ouch! That price is not going to sell many over the competition.

I think the same thing. With PT making more power and more affordable.

According to the first pic they use brand new OEM N55 turbos as a base. That will explain the price I imagine?
Pure make use of used turbos to build their units. Don't know why these guys don't do the same, the whole thing is rebuilt anyway?
Also consider that these guys don't require your old turbo, so you can make about $1k back selling it (see the prices they go for on Ebay, not cheap).

Saw this today for an N54 upgrade

Those are some REALLY nice numbers, I wonder if the TTE600 will make its way to the N55s.

Never heard of them, i recommend you go with a proven brand

thirdlobe · 07-25-2017, 03:59 PM

Looks like they are making a nice name for themselves.

Keep in mind this is 551whp/516wtq, europeans like to convert to flywheel hp.

Daleb · 07-31-2017, 03:27 PM

TTE are popular on mainland Europe and especially big in the VAG scene. I spoke to the owner and he didn't have any plans on producing a higher output turbo.

Regarding the numbers American whp tends to line up with European crank numbers

thirdlobe · 07-31-2017, 03:32 PM

Shame since their competitors are looking to make more like 500whp.
