Units should be kept in sealed packaging until installation, with inventory rotated to avoid obsolescence. Bulk orders benefit from palletized storage solutions, while smaller quantities can be stored in labeled bins for easy access. Always handle turbos with care to avoid damaging the cartridge or CHRA components, which could compromise performance.
