This man needs some cats :likecat:

*edit: unless you were talking about Lexzar. it's really crazy how 2 people have 2 broken BW's within 2 days around here.

Best part is we are both called Ryan.

Ryannnnn, atleast post pics of the carnage.



They're not warrantying it?

I posted a picture of ryans turbine wheel that he broke last night. See first quoted post.

Ryan mispoke. And I hope he told Southeast Power Systems that. Its actually the turbine wheel that broke.

Nobody looks at logs either apparently

Typo in my first post. It is in fact the turbine wheel, the gamma ti one. The expensive one. The pic Aiden posted is my turbo.

And the repair price quoted was for the GammaTi wheel, cleaning, balance, gaskets, assembly.

They said they can repair almost anything, within reason. Also sell just a CHRA, so you don't have to buy a supercore with the compressor housing. Center housing is about 800 bucks.

Mike also said that he has broken them exactly how I did. Says at room temperature they are very similar to a wine glass. A real bummer though to shit can 600 bucks for a small chip. Turbo Lyfe.

ridethecliche 04-14-2017 05:22 PM

I thought Aidan was just posting an example and not the actual picture! His posted image never said that was his.

Jeez gaiz.

Good luck RMP! Your username is still delivering...

Lexzar 04-14-2017 05:31 PM

Maybe I will go that route if the warranty fails. I have a perfectly good turbine wheel. It just isn't connected to anything, can you use that?

ryansmoneypit 04-14-2017 05:32 PM

Thinks..

ryansmoneypit 04-14-2017 05:33 PM

I could, but then you would need one. POR, the GammaTi wheel is 400 bucks.

Lexzar 04-14-2017 05:42 PM

Well mine isn't connected to literally anything, meaning, the shaft broke in two lol. I can't even imagine being able to weld that up and the horrors of seeing it balance

So you want everyone to jump on his shaft?

Trim the fat on the thread and make it a sticky for EFR accident victims?

aidandj 04-15-2017 09:12 AM

Include the thread where the guy let's his wastegate flap open and trashes his turbo
