this is the intake turbine from a TD05 that the owner tried to get out 30 pound ( the engine was made for it)

On first turn on, the engine started, and he took it for a test drive, got it back into the workshop and said it made boost twice, and then all he heard was metal noises.. they took the turbo off, and this is what it looks like.. look at the turbine blades.. they are snapped off.. and the turbo was full of oil..

(ps im sorry sexy mod's, i was looking for this forum, not the other one )

 

all thats good for now is a fishing weight. thats horrid looking.

 

o_O OMG

Well.. you could always make a blender outta it now? -- aha .. that sucks man

 

i bet thats gonna cost a pretty penny

 

Hell did they leave some tools in the intake tubing........that looks like trash for a 5 min.old turbo.

 

Nup, no tools in turbo nothing.. for some reason, this intake turbine housing was made from aluminium im pretty sure ( same as the R33 GTS-T turbos) that dont like any boost pressure above 20 pound.. this is what happens..

 

The turbo was on the car before as well, but had been rebuilt and fully inspected and balanced before they put it on the car as well...

 

we had a turbo in my high school shop class that looked like that

 

damn pete. you guys need to learn how to take care of your turboes down there

 

whys that ? we got plenty of them

Yeah, the guy purchased a T60.. the thing is massive ! but they have to make new exhaust manifold altogether for it.. should be a good project

 

why was the guy tryin' to push 30 PSI out of it?

 

trying to build something strip worthy.. although we tried to warn him the first time that the turbo is way too small, and should be a upgraded.. but.. he found out..

 

hehe, the hard way...sux 4 him

 

Yeah.. but, if you got the money, why not try it hey ?
