Do you have a turbo oil feed filter? I have seen quite a few turbos on other people cars fail due to small peices of liquid gasket blocking the oil feed to there turbos usually fairly soon after a build!
I have run a filter for years and have never had a turbo issue been running my GT35 for over ten years now. I always recommend one on all the cars i am involved with.
Thank you for the kind words everyone !
Yes i run an oil feed filter on the turbo, since the failed MD I wouldn’t run without one.
Cracking car this mate, from a fellow big turbo hawkeye owner
Incidentally I'm assuming they are Karlton Flares from the US?
Funny enough iv just been reading your thread Daz, hope you stay on the mend mate, really looking forward to the updates.. what’s your end goal.. just a track toy or sprinting events etc too ? I’d wish i had the space to be able to go as far as stripping everything and start from scratch.
Brief update on progress.. slow but progress is progress..
carbon roof from Marsh Composites arrived, also fibreglass doors from ABW. Next job will be take the roof off, cut the rear boot floor out and think about tubing the front end.
