[QUOTE="TARM, post: 83365, member: 578"] First by the damage to the wheel is everyone fairly confident something entered the system (how ever it got there) and hit the wheel? My question is of course becasue damage to the fins can happen from contact with the housing when the CHRA bearings go. A corner piece of a fin broken off by housing contact then hits the other fins is kind of what I was envisioning as a possibility. Pictures are a must though otherwise its all just speculation. But if the boots were still all connected as was the intake tube and filters it would be quite the feat for something to enter the intake track and end up in the comp wheel. I have heard of and seen boots, filters, intake tubes blown off the turbo inlet from high boost with a fast throttle let off where the pressure backs up thru the inlet and blows them off. I believe that is what happened to Vanderchevy and ate his comp wheel up on a track run. Also as David asked about the CCV and oil etc. Thinking about that : Was it connected up to the intake track or vented to atmosphere? If it was vented to atmosphere is there any port for it anywhere on the turbo intake piping anywhere? That could be a opening for something to enter the intake I feel bad for you as I would be pissed if I had a 1300 turbo bit it and then found out it would not be covered when you do not think you did anything wrong.
