I know what you mean man.. mistakes have happend and I don't mind admitting to them.. but nothing was done at all between one clean run and the next when it blew up.. that's all.

I'm just a little disappointed that I can't seem to get any help unless I'm handing money over on new parts. It's hard having a daily driver down for weeks at a time. Having a good chunk of $$ invested in custom tuning.. parts I can't use on a another turbo kit.. not to mention what was broke from this fiasco.

bro i hear u 100%. mine is as much a daily driver and im a little scared now that all this has happened. i have had mine in for 2 months and im tempted to look and see if i have any shaft play at all. this is BS if u ask me. we have to give david the benifit of doubt because he is a very busy man, but im sure he will help u anyway he can. i just hope the 5 blade is that much better that i dont have to worry about this. if anything happens to me, im thinking 35r or the new fp kit buschur has.

Yeah I know.. I know Dave is a good guy.. I'm just trying to get a plan together. With track season kicking off it's really got me in a bind. I will probably end up going with a 50trim or the 3065.

I'll know in a few days if I'm getting a 89 accord as my daily driver.. if this happens I'll be really happy... the A/C will probably go in the EVO and I'll have some time to save $$ for a larger turbo.

Nez: that didn't take long The 20G is great.. I guess I just need a lil more unf

Im not sure when its getting here, Jarrod said they are switching wastgates so it could be anytime i guess.

As for power, i've always wanted a Monster from the start and i was just beating around the bush

This would be the first instance I have heard of the 20G-9-6 going bad. I am sure there were numerous others who have this turbo and have no problems at all. Is this correct?

So far yes. I was one of the first to have these so I'm sure I've got more miles than most.

Dave is replacing the turbo which is good news. I can't wait to get the 20G-9-5 in so I can get back to 1/8 mile domination

I just read that on the Buschur Forums. That is awesome news......you get the upgraded 20G-9-5.....for free.


I read Daves reply to you and I wasnt surprised at all. Great customer service.

Yeah I had no doubts they would fix me up.. I just needed to vent. They were already going to upgrade me to the 5 blade.. now I'll just get a replacement instead.
