Just put my old turbo housing through the parts washer after stripping it down, and found cracks internally. See pics Is this common, or a cause of potential failure? Sent from my SM-G928F using Tapatalk |

I've heard reports of the TTE inconel turbine housing failing in spectacular (and expensive) fashion. I guess if your turbo has seen high boost and/or experienced some sort of thermal shock then it could result in cracking? As a matter of interest, what was your intention with this turbo by stripping it? They're not exactly the sort of component you can rebuild yourself! |

Just planning to get it rebuilt so thought I'd strip it down and clean the casting. There is about 8 cracks in total, and if a piece comes off all bets are off. Sent from my Sony Xperia Tablet |

Sounds like it's only fit for the skip Phil. I think JP has a secret stash of turbos if you need a rebuild candidate |
