Message: [QUOTE="TARM, post: 1066356, member: 578"] I also know of at least 2 accounts of a precision turbo exploding under less that extreme use in low hours. Not saying that they may not have been flukes but they were both 7.3 not that means anything in and of itself. But I do know after talking to garrett techs they are required to hold to what amounts to oem standard for duty life and hard use. They said they could get a good deal more performance from compressor wheels and what not if they did not have to be as durable. One specific area was in turning down the center area of the well to get more blade surface area but the issue was if you go thinner durability suffers. I know a fair bit about turbos tech but I am far from an expert so I am only regurgitating what they told me. I will say with what I do know it does make sense. Not to mention when you look at the way people beat on 38r driving they over pressure and egts on a constant basis the track record is quite good. Everything will fail and has but overall there BB turbos sure seem to hold up to abuse. [/QUOTE]
