Littco L380X Supercore turbo upgrade, Audi / VW 2.0L IS38

Littco – The Little Turbo Company

Littco is a small, but renowned producer of Audi / VW hybrid turbos and accessories. These turbos are known for their reasonable price level, combined with exceptional output in relation to minimal turbolag. IS38 turbo series is known from models such as Volkswagen Golf R Mk7 / Mk7.5, Audi S3, Seat Cupra and high output Skoda 2.0T engines between 2013-2020.

Note: This turbo is a Supercore unit. It means that the turbine housing, and original wastegate actuator servo will be used from your stock IS38 unit. Replacing the turbine housing is relatively easy and can be done with very basic tools.

These turbos can handle high boost levels and heavy loads without the cold sweat experienced while tuning the stock IS38 unit.

Littco offers multiple selected models from stock output to well over +500hp levels, depending on your power goals.
