Turbo junk??

**mparris** · 02-05-2012, 10:06 PM

question for the sentra community. i blew my turbo the other day from a bad BOV. i rebuilt it today. i noticed though that my compressor turbine had hit the compressor housing. its slightly scratched. junk or not junk?

The housing, should be fine I guess. If you're taking about the wheel, might want to replace it.

I concur with Sammy. Make sure you have the new wheel/shaft balanced.

Curious, how can you tell if a BOV blows a turbo? Shaft play? Leakking out? Fked up fins?

**MoltenNismo** · 02-06-2012, 02:20 PM

Possibly not opening and causing an overboost on the pipes, but the bearings gave in before the couplers.

molten's got it. and the turbos completely junk. i started the car up with the rebuilt turbo and its shitty. i ordered a new one. i hae a new BOV now so i shouldnt have a problem anymore

Yeah that was how my T3/4 was originally when I bought it used...just bought a new one, to make less head ache

how long did you run with a broken bov to pull this off? Granted it doesnt take much but sweet jesus.

anyways.. i would replace anything that is out of spec or bad from the abuse that it was put through
