turbz - rebuild aftermath

[MclarenGP]

@Boxersix

??? sending unit isn’t going to do you any good at this point unless you feel like bolting up a shit turbo and checking then. If the pressure is low/poor, you’ll cook a new CHRA in minutes. Having improper thrust clearance could be a culprit, but you’d snap the turbine shaft off before tightening too far on this turbocharger. You need to measure the stretch of the turbine shaft similar to a rod bolt. Typical stretch of .003" is within spec, just checked my books here.

When you rebuilt this turbocharger did you inspect and measure all the components to proper dimensionality? I’d be interested to see what these “ok” journal bearings and turbine shaft look like as well.

I gave it the ol’ once over :lol
