Probably best to get professional opinion on the condition of the housing, turbine and compressor. CR turbos or turbo dynamics

What did they say about the turbos? Any insight into what caused them to hari kiri?

Cheers guys! Will do my best to get to some meets/shows.

Shopp - the broken part of the manifold dropped into the other side of the turbo and destroyed the blade pretty much. The other turbo was fine but i got both done.

Next on the list is a detail 8)
