The first products are BV43 turbocharger systems with variable turbine geometry (VTG) produced at a Korean joint venture company, SeohanWarner Turbo Systems, for the new Kia Sorento 2.5 CRDI VTG diesel engine. This engine initially will be available only in Korea.
The BV43 offers improved thermodynamics and optimised control behaviour while at the same time ensuring much higher reliability than the previous VTG product.
