Deathdick: there is a LOT tighter clearancing in a turbo inducer wheel then in your lawnmower. And when something “uncompressible” gets in there is forces the shaft off center (at 40k - 100k rpms) which will fuxor the oil bearing. VERY simplified version. > [@DeusExMachina](#): > > You ever try to compress air with a lawnmower? 👏 ---
