MasterTurbo

What MasterTurbo does

MasterTurbo B.V. is a Dutch specialist distributor and reconditioner of turbochargers for combustion engines, headquartered in Groningen and operating as a subsidiary of the Wilmink Group since its founding in 1998. The company supplies OE-quality new turbos and professionally remanufactured (ReMan) turbos sourced exclusively from manufacturers that also serve the OE channel — including BorgWarner, Holset (Cummins), Garrett, IHI, Mitsubishi, BMTS Technology, and Toyota — alongside a proprietary Private Label range of more than 100 components built to OE specifications.

The company's technology stack centers on an in-house reconditioning workshop where turbos are disassembled, cleaned (using Bio-Circle biodegradable cleaning systems), inspected, rebuilt, and fully balanced to factory standards. This workshop capability is complemented by a digital commerce layer built on TecDoc and AlDoc certified data, which the Wilmink Group claims to be the largest TecDoc data provider worldwide, enabling vehicle-selector and license-plate-based parts matching on MasterTurbo's 24/7 webshops.

MasterTurbo operates a sales-led B2B go-to-market targeting wholesalers, garage businesses, and engine-revision companies across passenger car, truck, agricultural, maritime, industrial, and performance segments. Revenue is generated through one-time unit sales of new and ReMan turbos and accessories (mounting kits, gasket sets, electronic control parts), plus professional service revenue from repair and reconditioning jobs. Pricing is quote-based, with 30-day payment terms and a 12-month / 20,000 km warranty; next-working-day delivery before 8:00 AM is the principal commercial differentiator. The firm is privately held with no disclosed financials and serves customers in more than 50 countries through the Wilmink Group.
