Product Description

The BorgWarner 179182 S400SX (S482/87) is built for serious airflow and top-end power: an 82.2mm/110mm extended-tip compressor feeds an 87mm turbine in a T6 divided 1.25 A/R housing. Journal-bearing durability, race cover, and adjustable clocking make it a favorite as a high-power single or the atmospheric charger in compounds. Expect massive flow when your fuel, intercooler, and piping are up to the task.

FAQ

Will 179182 bolt to my factory manifold?

No. It uses a divided T6 inlet and requires a matching manifold and downpipe.

How much power can it support?

With the right fuel/air setup, the S482/87 is commonly used in ~1000–1300+ HP builds. Results vary by displacement, fuel, and tuning.

Is it daily-drivable?

It’s optimized for high-power builds. Spool will be later than smaller S300/S400 options; many customers run it as an atmospheric charger in compounds for better street manners.

What sizes are the wheels and housing?

Compressor: ~82.2mm inducer / 110mm exducer extended-tip. Turbine: 87mm wheel in a T6 twin-scroll 1.25 A/R housing.

Any emissions or Prop 65 notes?

This universal performance part is not CARB-exempt. For California residents: Proposition 65 Warning.
