01  /  Overview

The Next Step Up

The PT5558 is the smallest turbo in Precision’s CEA lineup. 55 mm compressor inducer, 58 mm turbine wheel, 590 HP rating. Built for small-displacement engines (1.5–2.0L) and budget builds that want the CEA compressor wheel technology without the bigger frame size. Popular on Honda, Mazda, and Subaru single-turbo swaps.

02  /  CEA Compressor Wheel

Competition Engineered Aerodynamics

2618-aluminum billet CEA compressor wheel scaled to the 55 mm frame. Spool is near-instant on small engines, and the efficiency map holds strong pressure ratios all the way to the top of the RPM band. It’s what you want when a T3/T4 57-trim is running out of airflow and you need a modern wheel profile.

03  /  Ball Bearing CHRA

Dual Ceramic Center Section

Dual ceramic ball bearing CHRA. On a 55 mm wheel, the ball bearing advantage is stark — the turbo spins up so quickly you feel it in the seat. Pair it with a standalone ECU and proper tune, and you’ve got a 500+ WHP street car with 2,800 RPM boost onset.

Four Spec Points — Every Unit Built to Order

Every PT5558 Gen 1 is hand-built in Hebron, Indiana. Dial in the four spec points above and Precision assembles your exact unit on the bench before it ships.

06  /  Picking A/R

Match Housing to Engine Combo

A/R is the single spec that most changes how the turbo drives. Lower A/R spools earlier and pulls hard in the midrange. Higher A/R trades some bottom-end response for extended top-end power. Rough rules for a 55 mm wheel:

0.58 – 0.68 A/R
Quick-spool street cars, 2.5–3.5L engines. Strong midrange torque.
0.70 – 0.84 A/R
The sweet spot. Works across 3.5–5.0L engines. Balances response and top-end.
0.96 – 1.32 A/R
High-RPM big-displacement builds, road race, drag cars. Holds boost on the top end.
07  /  Lead Time

Built in Indiana, Ships to You

Each PT5558 Gen 1 is built to order by Precision in Hebron, Indiana. Typical lead time is 3–5 weeks from order to ship. If the configuration you need happens to be in stock we’ll ship faster — reach out and we’ll check.

08  /  Why Precision

The PT5558 is the starting point of the CEA family. Same Hebron, Indiana assembly, same 0.2-gram balance, same 1-year Precision warranty. Budget-friendly entry into the CEA platform without giving up the compressor wheel technology that makes these turbos work.
