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
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
