Hey, it was expected to fail at some point. so it did.
I would love to tear that motor and see what happened for sure, and I will.
Next stage will be making it into something along the lines of a track car. Still haven't decided exactly what, though. I no longer need it as a DD, so I can really take the time, design it well, and go wild with it. A couple of years maybe... ?
For now I got me an A4 2.0T Audi
It gets 31 mpg and it is boosted too. Except the turbo is just about the size of my fist, but the cost of lease and the gas (monthly) turns out to be less than what I had paid on the 8 for the gas only, which in itself is pretty amazing.

subscribing to get better ideas. 2 thumbs up for the use of stock header IMO. Race header any better u thinks? not for the kit, but for better spool times on that monster of a turbine?
