Introducing IHI C.O.R.E. – A Total Service and Product Offering for the Forced Induction Market
This year, IHI has created a comprehensive offering, designed to enable performance and tuning shops of all sizes the ability to create bespoke, OE-quality kits and solutions for forced induction applications – IHI C.O.R.E.
“C.O.R.E. stands for Customized, On-Demand, Research, & Engineering. The program has been developed to support shops in every aspect of kit design, new product release, and manufacturing.
What we’ve recognized is not every speed shop has the internal capabilities to design, validate, or test the kits at the scale required to optimize for every application. There are some great minds in the market, and we wanted to support them as best we can to bring them to the next level. “
- Justin Ocello, Aftermarket and Performance Manager, IHI
IHI will collaborate with development partner, ProtoTITAN to introduce industry-leading engineering capabilities, such as Structured Light 3D Scanning, 3D Solid Modeling, Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling, FEA Testing and Application Specific Design that make packaging and designing products easier.
“We’re excited at ProtoTITAN to be working with IHI to bring these new offerings to the market. This partnership grew out of a mutual interest to leverage IHI's impressive development capabilities as a preferred OEM manufacturer with ProtoTITAN's unmatched design engineering talents.
Gone are the days where generic aftermarket turbochargers and superchargers must be adapted for use on the intended vehicle. Utilizing the IHI C.O.R.E program ensures clients are offering their customers the pinnacle in efficiency, fitment and value.”
-Chris Clark, Partner, ProtoTITAN
The market now has access to IHI’s OE quality turbocharger center sections and supercharger rotor groups, along with the full resources of ProtoTITAN for any engineering, design, or manufacturing need. This combination of parts, technical data, and industry know-how will be an asset to any performance and tuning shop.
As the only OEM that offers both forced induction product options, IHI is uniquely positioned to support any company that integrates superchargers and/or turbochargers in their upgrade product line.
