The Switchblade® Turbocharger improves performance by eliminating turbo lag with patented technology that increases velocity and pressure. The single externally actuated blade replaces the complex moving parts in today's VGT turbos, preventing carbon deposit fouling and reducing maintenance concerns. The electronic or pneumatic control system is self-contained and can be adapted to fit almost any application for VGT performance benefits, with a faster installation time.

The vane in the Switchblade® enables take-off like a small A/R turbine housing and opens at a preset boost pressure, performing like a large turbine housing. Giving you the best of both worlds - quick spool-up on takeoff and great power on the top end.
