BorgWarner 54399880083 BV39 VNT Turbocharger for Volkswagen 1.9L TDI

The BorgWarner 54399880083 is a genuine OEM BV39 Variable Nozzle Turbine (VNT) turbocharger designed for Volkswagen 1.9L TDI diesel engines. This turbocharger features an integrated exhaust manifold and pneumatic actuator, delivering enhanced performance over stock configurations.

Key Features:

• Extended Tip Technology for improved airflow and reduced turbo lag
• Greater boost levels and airflow compared to stock VNT15 turbochargers

Originally equipped on European-spec Volkswagen Polo models with 140HP TDI engines, this turbocharger delivers 96 kW (130 HP) at 4000 RPM. The BV39 design utilizes a smaller compressor wheel with less rotating mass than comparable Garrett VNT17 units, resulting in improved throttle response and reduced turbo lag. Cross-references OEM part numbers 038253056H and 54399700083.

Note: Custom intercooler piping may be required for certain applications as the compressor outlet differs from some stock configurations.
