I got carried away at a stop light last night with a big camaro next to me. He was messing with me for two blocks. He sounded real good and i went for it. I was driving EDDIE my mustang. I grabbed him by a car at first then climbed past him in third by another car. I was running 7100 RPM in fourth when i heard this big BANG. Photo explains it all. Rats The DUDE BEAT ME.
That dam flux capacitor. Anyone SEE DOCK. I have to get back DUDE. Nice comeback SNAKE That was real funny i enjoyed it. Well it happens. D'OE wish i at least beat the DUDE???? He smoked me UP top Untill my smoke ingulfed the entire highway for about a mile. It was nasty DUDE.
Time for a Bigger Flux Capacitor and a bigger Intercooler. Thats the only good thing that ever happens after breaking stuff. You get the chance for bigger stuff
Good luck with her.

Ouch. What do you think happen. Overspeed of the turbo, sucked something in or oil failure problem. It wasn't one of those chinese one? Hopefully no metal got in the motor. I assume intercooler probably got it all. Oh well fun has a price. Maurice
Um Tom...I'm pretty sure there's better ways to clip the impeller vanes. And I think you're now well aware of the fact that the two piece shaft is inefficient. Some guys just gotta learn the hard way Like someone said in another thread, if you ain't breakin' parts, you ain't makin power.
Well at least you found another good reason for an intercooler. I'm sure all of the "clippings" are laying in the inlet tank.
Believe it or not i always install a screen in the TB for that reason.(i get the old its to restrictive and upsets the air flow ETC nonsence) It is like an air flow meter . None of the pieces made it to the motor. I was lucky. The sperco is toast but it can be cleaned. There is companies that clean them but i am going BIGGER. I think it overspeed. I am pritty good about oil changes and not running the turbo hard then heat soak it. Hay i already called DALE and a new turbo is in the works. I really wanted to smoke that DUDE. Word on the street is the old man got smoked. That is debateable. There were no mosquitos around that section of highway for about a mile. Maybe next time CAMARO who ever you are????? Thanks guys its COOL.
