Storage & logistics
Proper storage of exchange standard turbos is critical to maintaining their condition before installation, especially in workshop environments where inventory turnover can vary. These units should be kept in a dry, temperature-controlled space to prevent moisture damage to the internal components, such as the CHRA and cartridge. For bulk storage, use shelving that allows for easy access and minimizes the risk of physical damage from shifting inventory. Regularly inspect stored turbos for signs of corrosion or contamination, and ensure they are handled with care to avoid misalignment of critical parts. When preparing for shipment, use protective packaging to shield the turbo from impacts and environmental factors, as even minor damage can compromise its performance. For garages, maintaining a rotation system ensures older stock is used first, reducing the risk of obsolescence and keeping inventory fresh.
