hi people have taken my turbo off today and it is shagged beond belief! all the blades have been rubbing the inside of the casing and actually worn the blades aways also there is a stupid amount of play in out and left right and i blown the oil seals lol so i would say ive broken it completely, not to worry as got a brand new reconditioned k03s coming in the next fews days :D along with a forge TIP, now my question is will the tip fit directly onto the side of the turbo or do i have to use that stupid metal bend at the bottom?
if it dosent do i need to change that metal bend to 1 from a K03s model?
cheers

What happened there then, thought yours was a low miler Coxy?

ha well was, i bought it in september with 38k but it has now done 51k so spose is still low milege but not as low as it was lol i think the stage 1 revo killed it as it never made more than standard bhp on the rollers :(

answer to your question in a word "no" how did u manage to shag ur turbo so much.?

well it started off by not making full boost after remap only hittin 18psi and dropping back to 10psi at 6k, then started making a faint high pitch sound above 10psi but would only make 15psi on peak so was getting worse (new the turbo wass gunna go) but use the car daily and thought if it goes ill buy a k03s! any way a few weeks later the oil seals decided to blow causing the turbo to be completly nakard but is ok now as k03s and tip will be here 2moz :) alot easier than i thought to take the turbo off too!
