Done that a million times, but always get off right away as soon as I feel it happen (usually ends with me almost smacking my face on the steering wheel anyway). I blow charge pipes at upwards of 25psi sometimes too.

How common is this? Just curious, always thought that overspinning a turbo was caused by little resistance for the compressor basically causing the shaft to spin too fast to be cooled and lubricated correctly by the oil. IE, heat buildup, which usually needs some length of time.
It isn't the MOST common, but typically it happens when a car is on a dyno during a high rpm pull where the high pressure is constant enough (for those 20 seconds) for any bad pipes to blow off. the sudden shift of that turbine shaft at that speed causes it to "overspin".
