Turbo Technics: A Brief History Founded in 1981, Turbo Technics emerged at the dawn of the turbocharged car era. The company’s initial offering was a turbo system for the British Leyland Metro, which was quickly followed by a turbo kit for the original Golf GTi 1600, developed in collaboration with the renowned German tuning company, Dr. Schrick. As the 1980s progressed, Turbo Technics expanded its portfolio, developing a national and international dealer network and introducing turbo versions for a wide range of vehicles, including the iconic Ford Brooklands Capri 2.8 and Fiesta XR2. Their relationship with Ford led to the creation of factory-sponsored turbo versions of various models, with the Sierra XR4x4 being one of the most popular. By 1990, Turbo Technics had turbo-charged over 4,500 vehicles of various makes and models. Today, Turbo Technics is globally recognized for its high-speed rotating machinery and its application to vehicles of all types, setting industry standards worldwide.
