Whitesupraboy2 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I finally decided to take a look at mine in the box and I see this exhaust side. Is it normal for that much to be gone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cable Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 did you ever find the impeller or did it fire out of your exhaust to lands far far away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lockys96 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 when these blow up. which way do the particles go. and james, what happened to your car to start pulling the things out. it seems on my car i have a very weak second tubbie, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 as the turbine is post engine then the bits normally get caught by the cat. If you dont have a cat they fly out the exhaust. As its a ceramic turbine on a j-spec it shatters when it fails and just disappears. So a blown turbo on a j-spec is normally okay for the engine so long as it didnt blow due to some other problem with the engine. JB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanchan Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Mine went just like that Isn't yours a UK car? Surely the steel turbines wouldn't disintegrate in the same way as the ceramic ones? Mine have done 101k miles now - I hope they don't decide to go pop any time soon cos I've just spent all my money on a house!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
