Comp turbo failure less than a mile

Boosted Performance

The verdict is in on this.

This was not a quality control issue, and the problem occurred at the time of the install (to no fault of the installer).

When the compressor cover was clocked (not sure if it was removed and replaced) for proper fitment, the seal or O-ring that sits between the compressor cover and the compressor cover back plate was pinched. This cause the compressor cover to sit at a tilted angle, which means the compressor itself was in contact with the cover.

As soon as some significant amount of exhaust gas went through the turbine, the compressor wheel overcame the resistance due to exhaust force, and stated to rotate while still in touch with he cover.

This is why in the video it looks like the shaft is almost bent...when it is not, it is the compressor cover not sitting square to the compressor wheel.

COMP is going to warranty this unit regardless.
