Suzuki Turbo Parts We Source
Boosterjet turbos and the supporting parts that should always go on with them.
1.4 Boosterjet Turbo
K14C
- The larger Boosterjet unit — the turbo behind the Swift Sport and turbocharged Vitara
- Wastegate rattle at light throttle and smoke on overrun are the two early warnings
- Petrol turbos run hotter than diesel ones, so oil quality and heat soak matter more
Priced against your VIN, because two of these that look identical often are not.
1.0 Boosterjet Turbo
K10C
- The small three-cylinder Boosterjet turbo — a compact unit in tight packaging
- Boosterjet fitment varied by market, so the engine code decides this, not the badge
- Confirm the actuator type first — electronic and vacuum versions are different parts
Priced against your VIN, because two of these that look identical often are not.
Turbo Actuator & Wastegate Parts
Actuator · wastegate linkage
- Frequently the actual fault when a car is down on boost or logging an underboost code
- Far cheaper than a complete turbo, so check this before condemning the whole unit
- A rattling wastegate linkage is a known noise complaint, not automatic turbo failure
Priced against your VIN, because two of these that look identical often are not.
Oil Feed & Return Pipework
Feed pipe · return line · gaskets
- A restricted feed pipe starves the bearing and kills a new turbo within weeks
- Fit fresh pipework and change the oil with every turbo replacement, without exception
- Cheap parts that decide whether the expensive one survives — never reuse the old feed
Priced against your VIN, because two of these that look identical often are not.
We do not publish figures for these. A used unit is priced on the donor vehicle it came out of, so the honest answer only exists once we know which car yours is — which is why every button on this page asks for your details rather than showing you a number we made up.

Replacing a Boosterjet Turbo on a Suzuki
Turbochargers are a narrower subject on Suzuki than on most makes, because only the Boosterjet petrol engines are turbocharged — everything else in the local range breathes naturally. So the first question is simply whether your car is a Boosterjet at all: the 1.4 in the Swift Sport and the turbocharged Vitara, or the 1.0 three-cylinder. Which Boosterjet variants were offered differed from market to market, which is why the code on the block is the deciding evidence rather than the badge on the tailgate.
The second thing worth understanding is that a failed turbo is usually a symptom of something else. On these petrol units the common culprits are a restricted oil feed, service intervals stretched too far, and heat soak from shutting the engine down straight after a hard run. Fitting a replacement turbo onto the same starved oil feed will destroy it, so budget for fresh feed and return pipework and an oil change as part of the job rather than as an optional extra. If the turbo let go and sent debris downstream, ask us about the catalytic converter too, and if the failure came with heavy oil consumption get us to look at a replacement engine before you spend on the turbo alone.
