True North Turbos TNT472 72MM T4
When you're building serious power and refuse to settle for an off-the-shelf import, the TNT472 72MM T4 turbo delivers — built to order by a Canadian manufacturer and priced in CAD with no cross-border guesswork.
Features & Benefits
72 MM Compressor Wheel
A 72 mm compressor inducer puts this turbo squarely in the middle of the 400-frame range — enough airflow for high-output builds without the response penalty of stepping to 80mm and beyond. It suits LS and small-block swaps, import six-cylinder builds, street/strip cars and performance diesel trucks equally.
T4 Turbine Flange
The industry-standard T4 turbine inlet flange makes the TNT472 a natural fit for high-output builds where T4 manifolds are already the norm — a foundation that gives you flexibility in your exhaust manifold and downpipe selection.
Built to Order by a Canadian Manufacturer
Every TNT472 is built to order by True North Turbos under Black Sheep Industries, not pulled off a warehouse shelf overseas. That means you're getting a unit assembled with attention to your specific build, backed by people who actually answer the phone.
CAD Pricing & North American Support
No currency conversion surprises, no lengthy international waits. The TNT472 is priced in Canadian dollars, ships from Canada, and is supported by a team that understands the demands of performance builds from coast to coast — including the abuse that harsh winter road salt and wide temperature swings put on drivetrain components.
A Strong Compound Top Charger
The 72mm frame is also a common choice as the atmospheric charger in a compound arrangement, where a smaller high-pressure turbo handles low-end response and the TNT472 carries the top end.
Stop waiting on import timelines and grey-market pricing — the TNT472 72mm T4 turbo is ready to be built for your application, backed by a Canadian brand that stands behind every unit it ships.
Replaces / Cross-Reference
The TNT472 is a direct bolt-on replacement for S472 turbochargers and other 72mm S400-frame units. Built on the same 400 frame, it uses the mounting hardware you already have:
- Turbine inlet: T4 — fits your existing T4 manifold
- Turbine discharge: 4.62" (117mm) half marmon — same flange and clamp
- Compressor discharge: V-band, sized to your charge pipe
- Oil drain: 50.8mm (2.00") bolt centre, 12AN port — same drain
At 72mm this supports roughly 995–1110 HP depending on combination. Full model mapping: S400 replacement cross-reference. Not sure on size? What size S400 turbo do I need?
FAQ
Is the TNT472 a direct replacement for an S472?
Yes. The TNT472 is built on the 400 frame, so it is a direct bolt-on replacement for S472 turbochargers. Your manifold, downpipe flange, clamp, compressor discharge and oil drain all carry over.
Is the TNT472 only for diesel builds?
No. The TNT4R line is universal. The 72mm frame is used across gas V8 swaps, import six-cylinder builds, street/strip cars and diesel trucks alike.
What turbine flange does the TNT472 use?
The TNT472 uses an industry-standard T4 turbine inlet flange, making it a natural fit for high-output builds where T4 manifolds are already common.
Is the TNT472 built to order?
Yes. Every TNT472 is built to order by True North Turbos under Black Sheep Industries, rather than being pulled from an overseas warehouse shelf.
Is the TNT472 priced and supported in Canada?
Yes. The TNT472 is priced in Canadian dollars, ships from Canada, and is supported by a North American team that understands performance builds across Canada.
