blown turbo
 

well i waited for 5-6 weeks to get my turbo back from blaast. not a pleasant experience. then finally it comes. so i install the turbo on my car and cruise around town for a week or so. maybe put 100 miles on the damn thing. then i notice oil every where on the turbo and am like ---- thats not good. but im leaving for work so i figure i will deal with it later. well i finally took it off and the silver plate that to compressor housing is attached to is totally loose. so im like ----. then i look at the fins. ------- chowdered. now im leaving again tomorrow at 5am and cant send this ---- out. let alone do i want to. i am in such a rage. ive sent him a message. and i hope that we can work this out. but i seriously have my doubts from other accounts i have read about on this site. i dont know what this accomplishes but i had to vent somewhere.

Re: blaast fucked my turbo
 

I have seen a few threads over the past year on here about bad turbos.I had one rebuilt it works tits and the service was super fast too :-\ I know of others that had the same great experience i had.I know shipping can be a ---- but that is customs due to cross border.

welcome to the fact that bolts are left loose for your clocking pleasure, dumbass.

Re: blaast fucked my turbo
 

so was the comp housing loose? or the plate that actually bolts to the center section?

Re: blaast fucked my turbo
 

that has nothing to do with him clock it negro. thats the BACKING plate that loose not the comp hosing.

Re: blaast fucked my turbo
 

thought he said 'compressor loosely bolted to backing plate' not 'backing plate loosely bolted, with bolted on comp housing'

Re: blaast fucked my turbo
 

yeah, watched video. guess he forgot to torque some ----. reminds me of the head job the mechanics have been workin on, oil pump ---- because an un-torqued, rtv'd headgasket leaked, sucked rtv, plugged oil pump. this was AFTER they replaced the shattered timing gear from the cam seizing from lack of oil. also, compression is 175-175-176-75, right to left, front to back, thanks to mr bent valve
