Predictika · Performance turbocharger orders
An AI sales agent prepares an order for a G-Series performance turbocharger from the public Garrett performance catalog pages: the model, the rotation, the turbine housing or kit, the target power and the engine displacement. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of what the catalog lists and returns a verdict, every reason and the figures it computed.
This validator models orders for four G-Series turbochargers on Garrett's public performance catalog pages, not just the scenarios shown below.
Any order for these four models that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: prices (the catalog pages list none, so this validator produces no price build-up or line-item quote), other Garrett product lines (GT, GTX, OEM programs), actuator calibration, accessories and fitment to a specific vehicle.

What this means
Our assessment of what a typical rules-based CPQ (product rules, price rules and validation rules, as in Salesforce CPQ) does with the same cases. It is a judgment about effort and reliability, not a claim that nothing can be built.
| What the validator caught | Typical rules-based CPQ | Predictika |
|---|---|---|
| A turbine housing the catalog does not list for this model | Only with care Each model has its own list of A/R, inlet, wastegate and divided combinations, so it takes a table of valid combinations per model and rotation kept in step with the catalog. | The model, rotation, A/R, inlet, wastegate and divided setting are checked together against the listed combinations on every call. |
| A rotation the model does not come in | Only with care A per-model flag plus a rule that must not also fire a second, confusing message about the missing housing. | The G40-1150 reverse-rotation case returns its own clear finding, and the housing check stays quiet for it. |
| A power or displacement outside the model range | Easy A min and max per model is a standard validation rule. | Each model carries its own range and every figure is checked against it. |
| Every problem returned in one answer | Only with workarounds Rules tend to fire as the order is saved or a step is completed, so a rep often fixes one error and meets the next. | All findings come back together, whatever order the choices arrived in. |
Every rule is checked on every call, in any order the choices arrive; one problem never hides another. Blocking findings stop the quote; approval findings need a person to sign off; everything else is computed.
| 1 | The target of 551 hp is outside the 300 to 550 hp range Garrett lists for this model. |
| 2 | The target of 299 hp is outside the 300 to 550 hp range Garrett lists for this model. |
| 3 | The engine displacement of 1.2 L is outside the 1.4 to 3.0 L range Garrett lists for this model. |
| 4 | The engine displacement of 3.2 L is outside the 1.4 to 3.0 L range Garrett lists for this model. |
| 5 | No turbine housing or kit with A/R 0.72 and the chosen inlet, wastegate and divided setting is listed for this model and rotation. |
