Unleash Record-Breaking Performance: The Ultimate Complete Turbocharger Upgrade
Engineered for drivers who refuse to compromise, the Premier Tuning Group (PTG) 1000 Turbo System represents the world’s only complete turbocharger replacement designed specifically for the hot-V M178 engine powering the Mercedes-AMG GT platform. Far beyond a basic factory hybrid rebuild, this is an entirely redesigned, ground-up forced induction system engineered to unlock catastrophic power metrics while maintaining the razor-sharp transient throttle response expected of a premium supercar.
Capable of supporting power levels scaling beyond 1,000+ horsepower, this identical turbo architecture has propelled the world’s fastest AMG GTs deep into the 9-second quarter-mile bracket and captured coveted 60–130 mph world records. If your objective is total dominance from roll races to track days, the PTG 1000 is the pinnacle of absolute volumetric efficiency.
Advanced Aerodynamics and Heavy-Duty Architecture
At the core of the PTG 1000 package is a dual ceramic ball-bearing Center Housing Rotating Assembly (CHRA), meticulously built to reduce rotational friction and deliver ultra-fast spooling capabilities.
- The Compressor Side: Features an advanced 5-axis CNC-machined 58/76mm billet compressor wheel housed inside a custom-cast aluminum compressor cover. Optimized with a 3-inch high-flow inlet and an integrated anti-surge compressor shroud, it ensures maximum air mass flow without inducing aerodynamic compressor stall or surge at high boost targets.
- The Turbine Side: Driven by a premium Inconel 55/60mm turbine wheel, designed to withstand extreme thermal loads and high exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) under extended full-throttle operation.
Optimized Flow Dynamics: Mono-Scroll Inconel Housing
Rather than restricting exhaust flow through modified stock manifolds, this system introduces an all-new, proprietary mono-scroll investment-cast Inconel turbine housing. By leveraging investment-cast Inconel, PTG maximizes internal cross-sectional area and smooths out flow paths, eliminating the backpressure bottlenecks that choke top-end power on standard hot-V configurations.
Turnkey Engineered Fitment
The PTG 1000 M178 Turbo System is engineered as a true bolt-on hardware package. The system includes all critical high-temperature lines, premium hardware, and CNC-machined fittings required for a seamless installation process that integrates natively into the factory packaging without requiring permanent chassis modification.
