2013 Buick Encore
Turbocharger

No, this is for newer Chevy and Buick vehicles. We can only guarantee fitment on US-market vehicles, but if you have any OEM part numbers off your original turbo, we can try looking them up to see if they match anything we have available.

No, this is just the turbo itself, but what exact vehicle do you have? We can check to see if we have the gaskets and oil lines available.

We can ship to NZ via UPS Worldwide Expedited; shipping cost and ETA are calculated at checkout. Keep in mind that we can only guarantee fitment on US-market vehicles. If your vehicle was privately imported from the US, I can double-check your VIN to be safe. If not, I can also look up any OEM part numbers off the original turbo to see if they match anything we have.

That part number doesn't seem to match anything else we have available either. Do you have a non-US-market vehicle? If you have an earlier-production Cruze model, the discrepancy could be because of an update for 2014+ models that is a retrofit for older models as well. Details about that here:

This turbo (40-30485) is GM's updated design and it fits all US-spec 2011-2016 Chevy Cruze 1.4T.

Yes it does.

Which engine does your Cruze have? Is it a US-spec vehicle? In what way is your original turbo different from this one?

Yes; just like OEM, the "hot side" of the turbo and the exhaust manifold are a single casting.

There's two parts to that:

1) We have lower operating costs than the OEMs and dealerships; no brick and mortar locations, lower marketing expenses, and other side effects of being a smaller company

2) OEMs tend to price their parts for the market when the cars are newer, where the cost is either covered by warranty, or targeting customers who ONLY go to the dealership and are less likely to cross-shop with the aftermarket. We sell more to DIY enthusiasts, or customers who got a particularly shocking repair quote from their dealership and want to explore other options

We strongly advise replacing the oil lines, especially the oil feed line, to ensure better oil supply to the center bearing of the turbo and better long-term reliability. If you choose to reuse the original lines, you can clean them out with carb/brake cleaner and compressed air.

This item (40-30485 GG) is just the genuine OEM Garret GT1446 turbocharger, but we also have it available with gaskets and an oil feed line (to ensure better long-term reliability) available here:

No, this only fits certain vehicles that were turbocharged from the factory. If you're looking to add a turbo to your vehicle, you would also need an exhaust manifold, all the intake components (including the intercooler and vacuum parts), likely some larger fuel injectors, and a custom tune to make it all work safely. This will also affect your vehicle's reliability, fuel economy and ability to pass any emissions testing. If you'd like a faster car, it would be much easier and probably less expensive overall to simply trade in your vehicle for something faster.

No, this turbo (Stigan 847-1446, SKU 40-30485 SG) is a stock replacement that's going to fit and function just like OEM.

This turbo (40-30485 GG) is a genuine OEM Garrett turbo, the exact same item you'd get from a Chevy or Buick dealership.
