About this category
The 1.2 THP 110 HP engine, found in multiple European models, demands a turbocharger that matches its high-pressure fuel injection and variable geometry demands. This category includes reconditioned turbos designed for direct replacement, addressing common failures like boost leaks, actuator malfunctions, or cartridge degradation while avoiding the cost of new OEM units.
As a wholesale specialist, we aggregate turbos from leading remanufacturers, ensuring each unit undergoes standardized testing for airflow consistency and mechanical integrity. Our role is to provide garages and DIY enthusiasts with reliable, pre-verified alternatives that align with the engine’s original specifications.
Professional uses by trade
Whether you’re a professional mechanic diagnosing a performance drop or a car owner tackling repairs yourself, understanding the turbo’s role in your 1.2 THP engine is critical. Below, we outline how each target audience leverages these turbos to resolve common issues.

How to choose
Selecting the right turbo for your 1.2 THP 110 HP engine requires evaluating several factors, from mechanical condition to compatibility with your vehicle’s existing systems.
- Prioritize turbos with verified variable geometry calibration to match the engine’s original boost curves and prevent drivability issues.
- Opt for units with a core deposit system to reduce upfront costs and streamline the return of your old turbo.
- Check the motorization code and OEM reference against the turbo’s compatibility list to avoid mismatches during installation.
- Ensure the turbo’s CHRA (Center Housing Rotating Assembly) is remanufactured to OEM tolerances for consistent performance.
- Select a turbo with a documented history of airflow testing to confirm its suitability for your engine’s power output.
- Verify the packaging includes protective seals and handling instructions to prevent damage during transit.
- Rotate stock regularly to maintain freshness, as prolonged storage can affect the turbo’s internal components.
Storage & logistics
For garages and wholesalers, storing reconditioned turbos requires climate-controlled environments to prevent moisture damage and corrosion. Units should be kept in their original packaging or sealed containers, with desiccant packs to absorb humidity. Regular inventory audits ensure no unit exceeds its recommended shelf life, while clear labeling of motorization codes and OEM references prevents misplacement. For DIY users, storing a spare turbo involves keeping it in a dry, vibration-free space, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to preserve its mechanical integrity until installation.
