It’s rumored that the porting done to the Stage 3 manifold/housing combo isn’t too great, and it weakens the inside of the runners causing flakes to come loose and go into the turbine wheel, which gives you the above result.  
The interesting fact is this happened at the shop where he got his alignment done, as when he got the car back he brought it here saying it wasn’t making boost at all anymore.

this can be displayed with a tv in the corner, playing numerous short clips of owners crying , bashing their heads on the counter, as they sign the work order with a long list of parts for their rather new car that has VERY new block windows

yea that doesnt sound a little fishy…it was more like “yo bob, lets take this thing out to see how good the alignment is…uh oh…why isnt it making boost anymore, o well, this kid knows the guys at the hybrid place, im sure that lee guy can weld him sumthin up” :lol:

was the stage 3 under warrenty, and if it was did he get it replaced or did he have to buy a new center section?

The car probably was under warranty, as there is only like 15-17k miles on it, but the owner just bought a new center section, and looks like he is probably going to have to get a replacement manifold/exhaust housing piece as well.

We are trying to find a suitable option to replace the stock type manifold/housing, as the more we read about it, it is prone to cracking everywhere.

Not sure why he didn’t go thru warranty. The car is far from stock elsewhere, and it gets the piss beaten out of it every second of its life.
