Mabotech M600 Turbocharger Testing

This page will serve as a starting point for posts about testing the Mabotech M600 turbocharger.

Mabotech M600 turbo details:

The Mabotech M600 turbocharger uses dual ceramic ball bearings with an 11-blade compressor measuring 57 mm at the inducer and 76 mm at the exducer. The turbine wheel has 9 blades, with a 60 mm inducer and a 55 mm exducer.

I have been supplied with two turbine housings of different A/R.

There are also two different compressor housings that differ primarily in the inlet design:

Note: I’ll add links once I write the posts.

• Bench testing the flow rate through the turbine housings

The following test drives were made using tunes developed for other turbochargers

• First drive – testing boost onset (IS48 tune)
• Second drive – testing boost onset and full-range performance (M520 tune)
• Third drive – testing boost onset without a GESi cat (IS48 tune)
• Fourth drive – testing full-range performance without a GESi cat (IS48 tune)
• Fifth drive – testing boost onset with a 0.71 A/R turbine housing
• Sixth drive – testing full-range turbine inlet pressure with a 0.71 A/R turbine housing
