Here it is.. the turbo rebuild kit in flesh.. $300 AUS for this.. then it takes another $250 to get your turbo rebuilt to specs again..

When the seal on your turbo goes, it starts shooting oil into the intake, and to replace the seal,you have to replace the whole kit.. and usually they have to order it in..

This is for my TC06 out of my cordia.. All because of the owner who had the car before didnt let it cool down after a hard drive.

Nice phone.


Oh yeah, the rebuild kit. Nice.

 

thats my ralliart one

on the back is pictures of the 2 aussie drivers and the evo7..

i got it from my local mitsi dealer..

 

i wish our dealers had cool stuff like that jk

 

Is that your shoe on the desk?

So they sell the reubuild seals as a kit? Kinda weird, but kinda neat. How many miles were on the turbo and engine before it started leaking? I'm kinda curious how long until we start hearing of failures....but regardless...isn't cooling less necessary for BB turbos too? And uh...does the Evo's turbo have ball bearings? q

 

k. Andrew, yes that is my shoe. Globe DC's.. if you curious..
my foot was on the desk because i wastrying to get the right light angle cause the digicam is **** in artificial light.


I dont think terms of use really matters.. if you thrash it, then turn off, it will bugger up nearly instantly..

And its then same throughout the turbo range no matter what sorta turbo you got.. the impellor is running like 19000 rpm.. some turbos, the exhaust housing can glow white.. when they are hot, it is essential to leave it running for a while

 

actually the turbo's can go well in excess of 100,000 RPM all our turbo's andrews for example are ballanced to 110,000 RPM and andrew was one of the few that his turbo was perfectly ballanced at thar RPm and beyond.
bought from turbonetics and verified at a local turbo balancing shop, (one of 3 in the country)

well there ya go

but you tell every customer to wait a while before turning your car off dont you when you sell them turbos?

or do you think, ive got your money, thats all i care ? like a few other retailers i know of ?

 

I wouldn't trust turbonetics to balance a soccer ball on their head, let alone a turbocharger.

 

are you standing on your desk?

 

nevermind it's been answered

 

i had too otherwise beiing under strict rules the piccie wouldnt of fitted on this site.. the original was 283kb.. and it should nearly everything..
