The Turbosmart TS-2-6870B-VB096E TS-2 6870 Kompact Turbocharger is engineered for high-horsepower street and motorsport applications that demand strong airflow, exceptional transient response, and compact packaging. This specific configuration combines a 68mm compressor inducer, 70mm turbine exducer, 0.96 A/R V-band turbine housing, external wastegate configuration, and oil-and-water-cooled center housing. Turbosmart rates the 6870 platform for approximately 850–990 horsepower.
Turbosmart developed the TS-2 series using modern materials and advanced aerodynamic design to create turbochargers that are smaller, lighter, and faster responding while maintaining the airflow required at high engine loads. A proprietary dual ceramic bearing system works with an ultra-low-mass rotating assembly and aggressive 7+7 2618 aluminum splitter-style compressor wheel to promote rapid spool and excellent response throughout the powerband.
Unlike Turbosmart's oil-cooled TS-1 series, the TS-2 incorporates both oil and water cooling for additional thermal management of the center housing. The hot side utilizes a lightweight 310S stainless-steel investment-cast turbine housing paired with a 713C Inconel turbine wheel, providing the strength and temperature resistance needed for demanding high-boost applications.

6870 Kompact Performance
- The 6870 Kompact configuration is designed to deliver serious horsepower capability without unnecessarily increasing the physical size and rotating mass of the turbocharger. Its 68mm compressor inducer and 70mm turbine exducer provide the airflow necessary for applications approaching the four-digit horsepower range, while Turbosmart's low-mass rotating assembly and ceramic bearing system are engineered to maintain strong transient response.
- With an 850–990 HP manufacturer rating, the TS-2 6870 is well suited to high-output engine combinations where both response and top-end airflow are priorities. Actual horsepower capability and spool characteristics will depend on engine displacement, cylinder-head airflow, exhaust manifold design, fuel, boost pressure, intercooling, exhaust backpressure, and tuning.
0.96 A/R V-Band Turbine Housing
- Part number TS-2-6870B-VB096E specifically identifies the standard-rotation, externally wastegated 6870 with a 0.96 A/R V-band turbine housing. Turbosmart's current catalog identifies this configuration with a 3-inch turbine inlet flange, distinguishing it from the 1.07 A/R V-band version, which uses a smaller 2.25-inch inlet flange.
- The V-band inlet and outlet provide compact, secure connections and simplify fabrication of a custom exhaust manifold and downpipe. Because this model is externally wastegated, the builder can select wastegate size and placement according to engine displacement, manifold configuration, exhaust flow, and desired boost range.
TS-2 Oil & Water Cooling
- The TS-2 center housing combines engine-oil lubrication with water cooling, providing additional heat management during sustained high-load operation. This makes the TS-2 particularly attractive for demanding street cars, road-race applications, and other builds where the turbocharger may experience extended periods of elevated exhaust temperature. Turbosmart specifically identifies TS-2 models as its oil-and-water-cooled turbocharger family.
Installation & Application
- The TS-2-6870B-VB096E is a universal performance turbocharger, not a vehicle-specific bolt-on replacement. Installation requires a compatible exhaust manifold, appropriately sized external wastegate system, downpipe, charge piping, oil feed and drain plumbing, and coolant feed and return lines. Turbosmart supplies the turbocharger with installation components including the appropriate weld flanges, V-band clamps, gaskets, and oil/water plumbing fittings, helping simplify integration into a properly fabricated turbo system.
For builds targeting serious horsepower without giving up response or compact packaging, the Turbosmart TS-2-6870B-VB096E 6870 Kompact delivers an impressive combination of 850–990 HP capability, a 0.96 A/R V-band hot side, dual ceramic bearings, advanced 7+7 compressor aerodynamics, Inconel turbine construction, and oil-and-water cooling in a purpose-built performance package.
