So the turbo was never starved of oil?

No, everything was checked, all lines leading too and from turbo had oil in them. The added power just found a weak point in my engine. I manages to boost for maybe 3 miles withy shop owner in the car after install.

Nice try on the $4200 price tag you threw me the other night. 3 miles? You literally blew the motor in 3 miles? I thought this kit was the best engineered system on the market? Oh well... good luck with the sale.

That was the other night. Prices change. I didn't blow the motor, it spun a bearing due to a previous pre-existing issue not seen before the turbo install. The motor just gave out with the added power, and in no way reflects on the build quality of this kit. You are just an AVO fanboy, so go buy that kit and leave my thread alone.

if you didnt notice the issue before the turbo install then how do you know the turbo didnt cause it?

Trouble shooting afterwards. There was no oil starvation, afr was good, no knock correction, nothing while the turbo was on.

That $4k price you posted was the 18th and this was just a couple days ago that you tried to push the $4200 so nice try thinking that working me over would pan out. Like I said, good luck with the sale. AVO fanboy? Not really. I was just pointing out that there were other options out there that have had a lot of engineering put behind it.

Remember, you sought me out to comment about trading my car and to buy your kit... Don't dig holes you aren't willing to step into.
