Thread: 1 pass blew the turbo!! PTE 6262 JB

I have had mine for several years ....no problems here

Hey Kev are u running a restrictor?
what size feed line are you using?


JUST a though Would the BOV not opening cause this?

It would backsurge to the turbo. The air has to escape somewhere

Defective BOV or wastegate can both achieve the same results, just as too much oil/oil pressure too high can cause damage to the CHRA.

This might be the case as I dont remember hereing the BOV go off
.

BOV not going off! That is a lot of pressure in those pipes, typically a coupler will blow. If you sealed those up really good then it could do damage to the compressor shaft/wheel for sure. Crazy man.

bov at 12psi pfffft, ran 20psi with no bov for years no probs

what size feed and drain do you have?

I bought aT3 kit, line and fittings no restrictor and T4 drain w/..hose nipple all from ATP TURBO..

ok but what size are they?
BB turbos call for a -4 and journal -3
I had a turbo ( non precision) go bad because i had a BB in it prior with a -4 which calls for but when the journal it went bad and had to down size the feed even with a restrictor

currently have a -3 feed -10 drain with my 6266
