034Motorsport
is pleased to introduce the R460 Hybrid Turbocharger System for the 8V
Audi S3, 8S Audi TTS, and MkVII Volkswagen Golf R! Consisting of an OEM+
Hybrid Turbocharger and 034Motorsport Performance Software, R460 is the
elegant, reliable solution for breathtaking performance on the street
or track.
Designed as a turn-key solution for discerning enthusiasts, R460
safely delivers more power and quicker acceleration, without sacrificing
response or reliability. Providing significant increases in horsepower
and torque past 4,500 RPM, the R460 Hybrid Turbocharger System shines on
track where the factory turbocharger can’t keep up. With a focus on
retaining quick spool and excellent transient response, R460 offers a
broad, usable powerband – instead of introducing lag in pursuit of
large peak power figures.
The Turbocharger
At the center of 034Motorsport’s R460 Hybrid Turbocharger System is
the LOBA LO462-EA888 Turbocharger, providing more airflow and boost than
the factory IS38 turbo is capable of – without the lag associated with
“big turbo” kits. Through the use of this Hybrid Turbocharger, R460
offers a true OEM+ driving experience, with lightning-fast turbo spool
and superb transient response.
Made in Germany and based on the factory IHI unit, the LOBA
LO462-EA888 Turbocharger features a state-of-the-art billet compressor
wheel to allow for higher flow and more power. The backplate, compressor
housing, and turbine housing have all been machined for optimal airflow
and increased performance. In addition, the LO462-EA888 turbocharger is
precision-balanced to ensure reliability.

The Software
034Motorsport’s proprietary ECU calibrations ensure that the R460
Hybrid Turbocharger System delivers consistent, reliable power even
under grueling track conditions. Through optimization of the factory
ECU’s boost, fueling, and timing maps, R460 Performance Software brings
out the potential of the LO462-EA888 Turbocharger. Peak boost ranges
from 24-26 PSI (octane dependent) and tapers to 22 PSI by the new 7,200
RPM redline to keep the turbo running at its optimum efficiency. This
precise, track-oriented boost mapping provides rock-solid performance
lap after lap.
Going beyond power enhancements, 034Motorsport’s calibrator also made
improvements to the throttle mapping to improve part throttle precision
and control. The end result is a tune that drives even smoother than
the factory calibration, with power delivery that is consistent and
manageable on the street and track alike.

Bolt-On Performance
The R460 Hybrid Turbocharger System installs as a complete,
bolt-on replacement for the factory components, without requiring any
modifications to the engine internals or fueling system. R460 was
designed and thoroughly tested to be safe for factory engine internals,
making it a true drop-in solution for enthusiasts looking for more power
than the stock IS38 turbocharger can deliver.
