That's a destroyed turbine. It was getting compressor stall due to the tips of the turbine melting off. Those sparks were parts of the turbine wheel blowing out the tail pipe. This is probably due to using an already destroyed turbocharger, or a major problem with the combustion chamber design. Because the tips of the turbine are gone, the turbine doesn't provide enough torque to power the compressor with the level of pressure its supplying. Compressor stall is the result.
@derickworley These diy engines don't really stall. And there is alot wrong with this turbine :P for starters, the turbine wheel at start is about 1,500* above top operating temperature. (those sparks out the back were likely part of it)
hot start

looked like some compressor stall at the beginning?..

@highvoltagefeathers They do stall, its been a problem of mine before! I made all the same mistakes with my first turbine...

WOW talk about a hot start. I think your CC unit needs some work and or your thrust nozzle is wrong.
