Outback Jack 6,352 Posted January 21, 2016 Hey guys, Me young mate built a kick ass lil turbo set up for his XG ute but today the turbo shat itself. Looks like the oil seal failed then bearing collapsed sending the impeller into the housing and ground it a new arsehole. Lol Poor bastard is an apprentice mechanic, so funds are tight. The turbo he had was a cheap brand and will be binned. My question is would anyone have a decent garrett maybe rebuilt or maybe a turbo off a later model falcon that they don't need due to upgrading to a bigger set up? He's a good guy and would just like to help him out if possible. Cheers. .. Jack. Sent from my GT-S7583T using Tapatalk 1 Austen Mogg reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it something in the ECU or something else that restricts it? I dunno much about the limitations of the stock set up in a turbo application.
