Bullseye Turbo FAQ
Bullseye Power Turbochargers: Customer Q&A
General Product Information
What makes Bullseye Power turbochargers different from other brands?
• Bullseye Power turbos feature patented compressor wheel designs like the BatMoWheel and TCT, which increase airflow and efficiency. Their products are engineered, cast, and assembled in the USA and offer advanced technologies such as true dual ball bearing center sections and billet aluminum housings for weight reduction and durability.
Are Bullseye Power turbochargers suitable for both street and racing applications?
• Yes. Bullseye offers turbocharger models ranging from 62mm for street use up to 104mm for drag racing or heavy-duty diesel trucks. There are variants and modular components available for different performance needs and engine setups.
Technical & Installation Questions
What oil feed line is recommended for Bullseye turbochargers?
• Bullseye Power recommends using a -4 AN braided steel Teflon oil feed line for all SB, BatMoWheel (BMW), TCT, and NLX series turbochargers. Using the right oil line helps ensure proper lubrication and turbo longevity.
Is a scavenge pump required for the oil drain?
• Gravity drain directly to the oil pan with minimal restriction is required. A scavenge pump can be used for installations where gravity drain is not feasible, such as in vehicles with low-mount turbo positions or tight engine bays.
How do Bullseye’s adjustable MAP rings benefit performance?
• Bullseye Power’s patented adjustable MAP (anti-surge) rings allow users to fine-tune the compressor map, minimizing compressor surge, and adapting the turbo for various engine combinations. This adjustability can deliver a significant power gain when tuned correctly.
What turbine housing options does Bullseye offer?
• Bullseye supports a range of housing options, including T3, T4, T6, and V-band turbine housings. These options let customers match the turbo to different manifold and downpipe setups for maximum compatibility and performance25.
