Never had a turbo catastrophically fail on me, only start whining due to high EGT's fatigue / melted tips.
When Darren and I were taking one of his non-forged blocks out for a rag, one of his many special blowers took a turn for the worst on shag pedal lift off. The blower already had a dicks length of in/out play in it, the lift off must have just thrusted it into the housing a little too far. The results of this are on one of his video's I think. Sorry Darren, I know I pushed you to take it out 'that one last time' before the blower went for a proper rebuild.....
