First time round it was definitely user error, I hadn't clamped the compressor housing properly. This time everything was checked and double checked, turbo was solid before fitting, it was primed with oil properly, engine warmed up before pushing hard.

And it was an animal even at low RPM, the death came after the first run through the whole rev range at full throttle. f*ck knows why it popped, the gauge said about 35psi but was only for about 5 seconds, surely not enough to destroy bearings?

Does sound a bit strange, don't think I'd ever want to push more than 30PSI through the block without having rebuilt it, which you did though right? Either your the most unlucky modified XUD owner in the country or your doing something wrong! Tongue
