WTF? I would think there would have to be a crack somewhere in the center section for it to get in there.

I'm sure your pissed.

 

...its been doing this since I got it so it was like that out of the box.....for a 1400$ turbo ...Im a little sleepless over it...one thing after another.....

I know how you feel man. But solving problems only leads to more knowledge.

 

That is just sick. I am also pretty sure it would have to be cracked to leak coolant into there. That really F-ing sucks, sorry to hear that. I have dealt with customer service a few times at precision and they are pretty good. Good luck man

 

gl on the fix

thanks...I got it directly from precision and I believe it has a 1 year warranty so they should be fixiing it.

I used the banjo fitting from precision with a-6 fitting welded on the end of the pipes

 

you dont have a warranty on it?

I have the same turbo on its way...
too bad its on back order right now.
keep us updated

I havent had the turbo for a year so it should be covered under warranty...Ive only been using it for a few months and of that I really dont drive the car

if its on backorder and I need a new ceneter section im SOL...I have a full tank of C16 thats going to be wasted and theres a race this weekend im going to miss...

 

Damn D@nny, the bicthes don't like leaking turbos! and how do you pull 107%?

 

my list of bitches is way to long anyways....they will have to take a few weeks off while I fix this

 

on your digital camera there is a button with a little flower on it, push it next time when you want to do close ups, you'd be amazed at how much clearer the pictures are /picture rant

you are sure this isn't coolant coming from the cylinders right? hate for you to ship something back and them to be like, nah, its not the turbo.

 

the motor is fine and its only in the turbo not in the manifold...

I spoke with precision today they were helpful..ill be sending it to them tommorow

maybe its gas you say you didnt drive it that much

 

no way...Im hearing of this happening to other people running water cooled garret turbos

 

im sure this will get straightened out, precision is good about customer service/backing up their warranty.

so im guessing no moroso for you this weekend?

im heading there tommorow and was hoping to see some of the big power street honda's from florida (esp. miami) out there.

hope you get this resolved soon

 

Ill probably be there sunday with nos51 and a few other cars ....I could cap off the water lines and run but honestly im sick of working on the car right now and its not legal to run a the track ...maybe next time

 

Wow, that's fucked.

 

well good thing you went with precision, im sure others wouldnt warranty it

did you say its illegal on the track to not run coolant to the turbo? I didnt know that...

 

noo, you can run a BB without coolant at a track, look at most of the drag cars out there.

 

i think he is saying his car isnt in spec with the track rules... cage, engine diaper, etc... etc...

 

oh ok....
i have alot of buddys who have never had problems not runnign coolant to thier bb turbos..

if your getting it fixed by precision warranty might as well do it though.
i know precision won't cover you under warranty if you don't run coolant.

 

i thought precision doesnt make a gt35 R

i thought they only made the E or w.e. housing it is but no ball bearing center....?
