I like there methods mate!! bet you were thinking what are they doing!!
you can buy a spray that you put on then you, put a secondary die on it turns purple and shows up cracks etc, where i worked they use to use it on chemical plant equipement welds as they have to be perfect.

Joe not sure what broke it, possibly 2 years of mindless hammering it into the ground :evilgrin:
The hybrid I have on now is coming back off in the next few days has its started whistling like a trooper..will be send back to C R Turbo's and sorted under warranty, the clutch will be fitted at the same time.
Nice to see your all sorted mate, I had to have the cooler done and I'm kicking myself now has could have bought an S3 one for the same money has this standard one cost, That pipe is the same one that split on mine? the small 90degree one coming out of the turbo, caused loss of boost and loads of black smoke.

I have no idea how the previous owner drove it (it was a woman too :signLOL: :signLOL:) but I mainly do motorway journeys with a good thrash now and again. Hopefully now it will be all good!
I could have got the extra bits now, like the cooler as you say but it was off the road for nearly 3 weeks and getting to work and back again was starting to get annoying asking people for lifts! If i decide to go for more power in the future, il do it in on go, its only money at the end of the day! (and i need to start paying for this repair!! :signLOL:)
I havent given it any yet, as the whistle didnt sound too healthy! I wonder what caused it? Piece of metal? Who knows!

3 weeks :happy2: try 12 weeks off the road I was using my mountain bike for work which got me back in shape but on cold mornings at 5:15 and 12 hours work behind you its not a nice feeling trying to cycle home :sick:
I would say if it was a women I can bet she never warmed it up before giving it any sort of boost and never left it running for a minute or so to cool down :fighting:
If its your first turbo I would have the EGR valve and manifold off and cleaned out and if money permits get one of the EGR delete kits from Darkside :happy2:
