Storage & logistics

For garages and wholesalers, storing exchange-standard turbos requires controlled conditions to maintain their remanufactured state. Keep units in their original packaging until installation to prevent contamination or damage. Store in a dry, temperature-regulated environment away from direct sunlight, and avoid stacking heavy items on top of the boxes. Regularly rotate stock to ensure older units are used first, maintaining freshness and reliability. For DIYers, a cool, clean space is sufficient, but always inspect the turbo for transit damage before installation.
