Product Description
Unlock crisp spool and strong top-end with the BorgWarner 178787 S400SX Turbine Housing. Sized for the 87mm S400 turbine and engineered with a twin-scroll .90 A/R T4 volute, this genuine AirWerks housing is a proven match for street/strip single S400 builds and compound setups that demand fast response without choking the top end. Cast-iron construction stands up to heat and abuse, while the divided T4 inlet helps stabilize drive pressure and improve cylinder scavenging.

FAQ
Will .90 A/R T4 choke my top end on an 87mm S400?
For most street/strip S400 builds the .90 A/R twin-scroll offers excellent response with strong top-end. If you’re running sustained high RPM or big fuel, consider the 1.00–1.25 A/R options linked above.
Is this housing divided (twin-scroll)?
Yes. It uses a divided T4 inlet to help pulse separation and reduce drive pressure in properly matched manifolds and piping.
What turbine wheel does it fit?
It’s sized for the BorgWarner S400 87mm turbine wheel.
Does it include hardware or clamps?
No. This is the housing only. Retain your hardware or source BorgWarner-compatible hardware separately.
