Abstract
A number of variations may include a product that may be usable with a turbocharger system and may include a housing that may define a lubrication bore. A bearing assembly may be positioned in the housing. A shaft may extend through, and may be supported by, the bearing assembly. A turbine wheel may be connected to the shaft. An end cap may be connected between the housing and the turbine wheel. The end cap may define a cooling chamber. A spray head may provide an opening between the lubrication bore and the cooling chamber.
