On level seven on the adrenaline pushing about 30 psi boost and about 10on the pyro the turbo started making noise i let off shoots to 0 psi and got nothing and makes all kinda of racket pretty sure i blew the old HX 35
That's what you get when you have a fully closed wastegate and you dump the throttle at WOT under hard acceleration.
All the built up pressure has to go somewhere, and it can't go out through the wastegate like it would normally.
Yea gus i was at work had bad service were i was at ill be getting ahold of you shortly and after taking it apart i realized i blew the bearings out on the exhaust wheel or at least i think.
Wonder what my drive pressure was when I hit almost 60psi.... hmm, I just had my boost elbow cranked down way too far, then hit the TST and boost was through the roof!!! It barked a lot more before the upgrade though, thats for sure, dunno why.
Saw pics of the turbo - it's definitely messed up. Turbine wheel broke right off the shaft.
