Single Turbo

Ryan G lost a turbo because bits of weld came off the inside of the XS power manifold he was running so I really wouldn't go with one of those either. Also I think one of the bracing bars has to be removed to fit it properly anyway and also again the bracing bar is fixed, so it'll expand at a different rate to the exhaust runners as it all heats up and probably cause more harm than good.

Ian i did read this a while back but am a little sceptical, how did he come to this conclusion ? and does he have 100% proof this is what happened or is it his best guess, i have no axe to grind with XS power as i dont use it but i think we need to be subjective

He found a bit of broken off weld stuck in the wastegate, there was only one place it could have come from.
