  • yes i ended up needing a whole new center section... only thing i could keep from the old turbo were the housings

  • thats from shutting it off after not letting the turbo spool down... if the turbo dosent have oil going to it wen its spinning at 20,000 rpm its gunna cook allot of shit

  • Actually no it's from ringing it out at 41 psi. I always have had a turbo timer.

  • Sounds like impeller physicall damage,or bearings are end their life.Probably unsuitable turbocharger care, like immediate engine switch off after fast ride.

  • @crcain Or both :D

  • blown turbo

  • maybe even bent shaft or the impellar spun forward on shaft due to heat expansion eitherway its done i have seen several 1.8 audis and vws have some of the same issues to much hard driving not enough cooling and oil flow

  • @spancer87 apparently hes used to working with VERY efficient turbos lol

  • Sounds like the rotor blade or compressor impeller scraping up against the volute casing. It's just a guess, it does sounds like some serious physical damage. unfortunately.

  • and let the youtube arguing begin! ready go

  • oh dear that sounds expensive

    ah the joys of motoring

  • @ryanmil420 20 000 rpm? don't you mean 120 000...?

  • That's the sound of a bearing saying "I GIVE UP!!"

  • tjukatjukatjukatjuka oeeeoeeeee its the american express train
