Bryce's turbo arrived today and will be installed tonight.

EFR6258 serial numbers:
Code:

yank    APA069110003
soviet  APA087110025 (le failed)
99mx5  APA265110003
Bryce  APA180110021

Also if you take the compressor housing off, the production date is inscribed on the CHRA. I don't have pliers but my failed one is from May 10, 2011

Mine only lasted three years. The last time I had a math magician in here it (tranny) told me that 3-years was longer than 30-seconds. My CHRA is there for the Olympics and coming back after that.

I was expecting this to happen. I beat on this thing exactly the same way as before and exactly the same thing happened.

Once they fix it I expect the turbo to last approximately forever.

It happened the same way btw. I just punched it in 2nd randomly. Basically, it happens when you load up a cold turbo
