So it self-clearanced and everything is fiiine! Just kidding. Awesome video. You are definitely putting out some of the most accurate and informative turbo content on KZbin so keep going. Very few channels actually make reliable content I can refer people to.

Great explanation!

Great video. Could this same action contribute to what I describe as a Screaching sound coming from the exhaust in a diesel application? When boost is about 35 to 38 psi. 38 to 40 being the max for me. BW T6/1.45/80mm I had hoped it was a turbo boot leak but it's not. This same turbo configuration typically yields 40 +plus psi in an identically tuned diesel engine. Mine struggles to hit 40psi. Unless it's cool outside with fresh fuel filters.

Ignoring the new dimensions, are the turbine and compressor junk or could you reuse it? Thanks for the great video. I bought an s475 compressor off the Classifieds with the same light damage. Dishonest seller.

Once a wheel has touched off on the housing, we never reuse it. There are rare cases where the turbine wheel is obsolete, and we can weld up the damaged blades and re-contour the profile to make it viable again. Expensive to do, but if it is your only choice we have done it. The compressor wheel cannot be repaired, but we have re-contoured them to a smaller size before. For example this wheel could be reduced to our 78mm profile if needed (it is 80mm now). But since those wheels are inexpensive (relatively) we never do this.
