VSR Balancing
As a critical step in our build process, each turbocharger undergoes precision VSR (Vibration Sorting Rig) balancing using one of our Turbo Technics VSR balancing units. This essential process controls the turbo's vibration levels, reducing noise and significantly extending bearing life. Excessive vibration places undue stress on the turbo's bearings, potentially leading to premature failure. By reducing vibration to safe levels, VSR balancing ensures your turbocharger operates quietly and reliably.
