Regular inventory rotation ensures that older stock is used first, reducing the risk of parts sitting unused for extended periods. For garages, storing turbos in sealed plastic bins with desiccant packs helps maintain their condition, especially in regions with high humidity. Always handle units with care, avoiding drops or impacts that could compromise internal components like the CHRA or wastegate.
