I pulled the turbo off today to install a copper gasket between the turbo & header. When I took the down pipe off I checked for play,none. When I put the intake pipe on the inlet side the fins were damaged like it sucked something in.:mad:
Will it have to be rebuilt. It might have 3,000 miles on it

Just pisses me off. One thing after another! I am glad I caught it now.
 
Hopefully it is just a wheel and that's it.

What the hell could of done that huh??

Makes me want to take off my inlet pipe, maf and cone and shake the crap out of them to see if anything pops out.
 
I won't know till I take it off but I can't see anything else. Gonna put a new K&N on and check for anything that might have came loose. The maf screens are gone already,might would have been a good idea to leave one in......
