I read quite a bit on this topic, and I do understand what the general consensus is... I was just wondering if any of you are still running these without any issues. TIA.

6k miles on mine, 24psi taper to 22, not a hint of excess noise of oil loss/consumption...i believe i have the last pair of hybrid turbos Jacob made before disappearing (Feb 07). They were new ko4's when i had them converted.

Andrew C, OCAVANT, and cjk have buehn bombs also ;-)

...i'm still withholding judgment on the Blouch 'birds until you guys start actually putting some hard miles on them. hehe hi Josh!

jacob rebuilt one of my KO4s... and the seals blew on that one after 18k miles.

I have a good feeling about these blouch turbos though.. theyre nice and quiet. before the rebuild, they screamed at WOT (see video). if these Blouch brids blow, i will fill my car with dynamite and blow the ****ing thing up.<ul><li><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrPc1OVVQL0">Vid of screaming, blown seal, KO4s</a></li></ul>
