Thanks for the replys guys...:) Nice to know people care.

I still don't know for deffinate what caused it or what exactly it is that went or even if one or both have gone. :confused:

All I do know is I have lots of smoke and so my turbos are going to be little more than paperweights soon......

I got my car back from Dude on Thursday after having a FMIC amongst other things fitted. Anyway when driving I was not getting anything above 0.5bar boost and so I checked hoses as per Dude's advice and sure enough one had come off.

Matt could you clarify which hose you mean, was it an intercooler hose?

If so, the engine would have been sucking unfiltered air and whatever else it could hoover up. I'm wondering if some of that detritus made its way through the engine and then met the turbos. :bang:

Hose wasnt off just needed jubilees tightening up more , strangely a lot of the turbos now failing seem to be No1 !!!! Mind you seeing as Matt has an HKS filter he may as well not be running one !!!;)
