Our turbocharger facilities are models of operating efficiency and new technologies. Here, TSI brings together the entire range of turbocharger solutions, from product development and lean manufacturing to repair and testing to inventory and shipping. Thanks to the collaborative work of facility engineers, customers enjoy even quicker response and a much more effective team effort.

Closed Loop Turbocharger Testing

Proper turbocharger testing is vital to achieve exceptional performance, and only TSI maintains sophisticated in-house testing capabilities for quick, reliable results. Our 6,200 square-foot test cell houses two turbocharger test stands that permit testing of all our turbo lines. This closed loop system simulates actual on-engine conditions with two gas fired burners, and real-time internet test monitoring allows the option of remote witness testing.

Our testing capabilities for large and small turbochargers includes mechanical, design point and compressor mapping tests, giving our customers the utmost confidence in a proven, verified product. Testing is used to establish baseline performance data, facilitate trouble shooting and enable product enhancements.  As a matter of policy, every new TSI turbocharger is tested before delivery, as are all new turbocharger upgrades when first developed. Upon request, customers are also welcomed to take advantage of our testing and expert engineering analysis for rebuilt turbochargers.
