]I just lost a TE-60 that didn't have close to 10,000 miles on it.
I feel that a bigger turbo, pushing alot more air than a stocker, looks to only magnify the problem of compressor surge.
It's true my stocker was still going strong at well over 100k, but has alot of play in the shaft.
I'm getting a BOV for the new turbo I have coming.
That, and a new oil feed line will satisfy my fears of this new one going bad
