Turbo Components
Turbo Components: the core hardware that makes boost, priced from rebuild parts to full super cores
Turbo components are the pieces that build and route boost on a forced-induction engine. A turbo takes exhaust energy through the turbine, spins a shaft on a center cartridge, and drives the compressor wheel that packs more air into the engine. The parts in this category cover that center of the system - the super core (cartridge) assemblies that carry the shaft, wheels and bearing housing, plus the pedestals and mounting hardware that hold a turbo to the engine. You fit these when you're building for more power, replacing a worn cartridge, or upgrading the turbo mount on a diesel.
What ThreePiece stocks
This page lists 45 turbo components across 7 brands. The two biggest are BorgWarner with 18 in the sample and Garrett with 16, followed by aFe, BD Diesel, Perrin Performance, Wehrli and HKS. Current in-stock prices run from $64 to $3,572 - that is the live range for what's on the shelf right now, not a fixed promise.
At the top end you'll find complete super cores like the Garrett G42-1200 Super Core and the Garrett G40-1150 Super Core. BorgWarner's EFR line is here in two bearing-housing versions: the EFR B2 8474 with aluminum bearing housing and the same core with a cast iron bearing housing. For diesel mounting, the Wehrli L5P Duramax T4 Turbo Pedestal and the Wehrli High Flow Turbo Pedestal Kit cover the pedestal end.
How to choose
Start with the job. If you're rebuilding or upgrading the heart of the turbo, a super core is the whole rotating assembly ready to drop into your turbine and compressor housings - that's the Garrett and BorgWarner end of the range, and it's why those prices sit high. The BorgWarner EFR B2 8474 gives you a real choice within one part: the aluminum bearing housing version is lighter, while the cast iron bearing housing version trades that for a different housing material at a slightly lower price. If your build is a diesel turbo swap or high-flow upgrade, the pedestal and pedestal kit are the mounting hardware, not a cartridge - much lower cost and a different job entirely. Match the part to what your existing turbo setup already provides.
What else you may need
Turbo work rarely stops at the core. Plumbing and oil feed usually need attention, so check Fittings and Adapters, and the Oil Filters and Gasket Kits you'll want on hand for the install. A boosted build often runs hotter, so browse Radiators. All of these sit under the parent Engine Components section.
