Default Blown turbos this morning running with Lincoln LS and A6.

Rolling out on I40 with a Lincoln LS & A6 behind him. Pulled along side at 80 mph kicked it down and started walking away and the turbos went south.
39k miles on odometer, Abt chip since 1K w/ DPs.
Was pulling the trigger on K04 kit this weekend anyway.

Default Ouch. I guess if it had to happen, timing was good at least. I'm not encouraged about

chipping my '01 w/15XXX miles. My K04 fund was reallocated to cribs and and other assorted baby furniture. Good luck with the upgrade. Who's going to do the work?

But did you bow out of the pull gracefully?

Big Baller. Blown turbos not a huge endorsement for Abt, huh?

Default Ouch, happened to me just last week.

Getting the Stage 3 done right now, plus all of the other goodies that go along with in (new IC's, clutch, flywheel, etc.)

Good luck to you.
