ANTZ MQB550 HYBRID TURBOCHARGER FOR MQB PLATFORM 2015+

The ANTZ MQB550 Hybrid Turbocharger is a high-performance, dual ball bearing turbo designed specifically for MQB platform vehicles. Engineered as a direct replacement for the factory IS12, IS20, or IS38 turbochargers, the MQB550 delivers significantly increased airflow and power potential while retaining OEM-style fitment and reliability.

This hybrid turbo features an upsized billet 5+5 compressor wheel, with the turbo housing precision-machined and profiled to suit. The CHRA has been upgraded to a dual ceramic ball bearing system, improving boost response, efficiency, and durability under high load and boost pressure.

Supplied as a brand-new complete turbocharger, there is no need to send in your original turbo core. The stainless steel turbine housing, OE-compatible wastegate actuator support, and full compatibility with factory oil and coolant lines make installation straightforward for Stage 3 builds.

Each turbo is VSR high-speed balanced to ensure long-term reliability and smooth operation, making the ANTZ MQB550 an ideal solution for enthusiasts chasing serious power while maintaining OEM-level integration.
