How to choose

Selecting the right turbo for a 2.2 DTI 120 HP engine requires attention to motorization specifics, core condition, and intended usage. The following criteria help narrow the options to the most suitable product for your needs.

1. Verify the motor code and vehicle model to confirm turbo compatibility, as slight variations can affect fitment and performance.
2. Inspect the core deposit policy to understand return requirements for the used turbo, ensuring compliance with local regulations.
3. Assess the packaging format—cartridge or complete unit—based on whether the installation will be performed in-house or by a third party.
4. Prioritize turbos with documented remanufacturing processes, such as CHRA testing and geometry variable adjustments, for consistent quality.
5. Consider the rotation speed of your inventory to avoid stocking obsolete references, especially for less common motorizations.
6. Evaluate the warranty terms provided by the remanufacturer, as these can vary significantly between suppliers and impact long-term reliability.
7. For bulk orders, request samples to confirm the product’s condition and packaging integrity before committing to a larger purchase.

Storage & logistics

Bulk turbos for the 2.2 DTI 120 HP category require controlled storage to prevent contamination or damage to the CHRA components. Units should be kept in their original packaging, away from moisture and extreme temperatures, with clear labeling for motorization and reference numbers. Rotation follows a first-in-first-out system to ensure freshness, while core deposits are stored separately in labeled containers to streamline returns. Handling should prioritize the avoidance of shocks or impacts, as these can compromise the turbo’s internal balance and lead to premature failure.
