gdog1989 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) So as a few of you know I have had my car apart myself as it blew a turbo up for the second time in less than a year so been off the road so I could do it in whatever free time I had got a set of second hand turbos took it all apart even cleaned it all up swapped the set over and finally got it all back together today had a few teething issues like twin fans not working ect so sorted them out and got boost sorted out only to find that when the second turbo kicks in it makes a sound that I can describe as a school girl screaming and a nasty puff of smoke out the back......trying to stay as calm as possible I am taking a geuss these turbos are not soo good anyone else had this issue and it be something else wrong not a blown turbo? I am getting to the point of breaking this now as im not enjoying owning it anymore.....less than a year Edited May 29, 2014 by Gaz6002 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dim Sum Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Sometime's buying a Supra is pot luck, most of us would not get a problem but I am afraid there will always be a few with issues. I hope you get it sorted, CR turbos is a good turbo re-builder and a reasonable price. Why not give them a ring? That's if you still want to continue.

Guest Nicholas Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Sorry to read you've had so many problems Gary, could be the perfect opportunity to go single turbo? there's a T70 for sale cheap in the for sale section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdog1989 Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 Haha I have been thinking about it to be fair but im the poor boy of the forum I could not afford to go single and do it properly I dont think, there is alot of work to do that is there not?.....may look into a few things though.
