Diary of a Madman; TitaniumTT's see you @ DGRRXI RE-REbuild

and you blew up 6 turbos in 6 months? How's that? I know you'd had one failing when you were here, and you got a new set in Cali - that's like 3-4 turbos accounted for, what's the story on the others??

Well, the one that was failing when I was there totally gave out shortly thereafter. I replaced that in CO. That one lasted an hr before it puked. (there's two in three days) I hobbled the car to Glenns where we pulled the engine, fixed the sleeve, bolted on a set of turbo's that included one of my old ones. Those lasted a matter of minutes as well. (three) Swapped those out on Sunday night for a new cartridge and left for home(number 4). Made it to AZ before turning around and heading back to Glenns. Swapped those out for two different cartridges and those got me home. Now they're making 382hp and spewing oil everywhere. So those are gone 5 & 6 since I left in early December - to late January when I last drove the car.
