No different than 3 customers having overboost issues...forum experts jump right on that too, and say poor design of kit, this that and a bunch of other BS. Only to find out that the installer mixed up the vacuum lines.



Always enjoy opinions, base on 3% of knowledge about the actual situation. Been doing this for a long time, seen it all.



As for "play", every turbo has "play", especially a JB turbo. If it didn't, it would explode the first time it gets up to the 1,400 deg F operating mark under full load.
And how many of those janky air cooled turbos did you have drop shipped without changing your product description? I'm sure BettyZ wasn't the only person to open the box and go

"wtf is this? I didn't buy this"

"they cool the hot bearing housing with hot air and it's not even hooked to the oiling system to help cool it off"

No wonder the warranty is crap.
