see i took the manifold off with the turbo, put the new turbo on, attached everything else, did a 4 time look over with my dad, started it, idled for about 5 minutes, took off down the road and next thing i know i was pooring white smoke out my exhaust. got back took it off the next day and realized i seperated my exhaust wheel from the shaft, dont know if I did something wrong or what.

Yeah im curious how you got the turbo off the mani without taking the whole thing off.

a couple weeks ago enrout to the fire dept i came up to an intersection, let off to clear it got back on it and realized i was rollin white smoke. then a few days ago blew it up. replaced it with a 62/71 and blew it up. im cursed i SWEAR.
