Default Jacob or Mike, what was the outcome of that low mile hybrid turbo failure Mike had?

Did you guys ever come to a conclusion on what the cause was? Just curious, as I never read a conclusion of what happened. TIA!

Default inside the exhaust manifolds were coated with Jet hot ...

don't ask why after 150 miles the coating flaked off and caused the turbos to go out of balance . Jacob does good work , I got another set from him .

Default Was never doubting his work! My deposit speaks for my feelings about his turbos.

I just was curious about what the cause of the failure was. FOD I guess then. Thanks!

Default Sorry I never got back with you re: the TS install. Bizzzy

Spending money like water lately...think I'll do them myself if I get time. That said I'm sure I'll change my mind again and end up asking again...ha ha.
