When working with Holset based turbochargers, such as the Super 54 and Super 60, it is essential to follow proper installation procedures to avoid unnecessary complications. This guide provides a step-by-step approach to ensure a smooth installation process.

It is common for individuals to attempt to save time by skipping essential steps during the installation of turbochargers. However, this often leads to more time-consuming issues later on. To facilitate a successful installation, we recommend the following steps:

Begin by loosening the new turbocharger just enough to allow it to rotate counterclockwise on the manifold. This adjustment will provide the necessary flexibility for the subsequent steps.

Next, disconnect the downpipe from the rest of the exhaust system. Most systems feature a ball and socket connection at the bottom, which should be carefully separated.

Utilize a jack or enlist the help of a buddy to hold the downpipe up to the downpipe adapter. Secure it loosely with a clamp to maintain its position during the installation process.

If necessary, you can use a ratchet strap to pull the entire exhaust system forward or backward. This adjustment will help hold the system in place while you attach the clamp.

Once the exhaust system is properly positioned, reattach the downpipe loosely. Ensure that all components are aligned correctly before proceeding.

With everything connected loosely, check to ensure that no parts are making contact with each other inappropriately. Begin tightening the connections, starting from the front and working your way to the back. This methodical approach will help ensure a secure and effective installation.

By following these steps, you can streamline the installation process of Holset based turbochargers and minimize the risk of complications. For further assistance or inquiries, please feel free to contact Quadstar Tuning LLC.
