you got it, Johnny. Pulled 2 other turbos, rebuilt them, installed gaskets in the collector, on one truck, and both of them have no problem, hell the one spools even more now.
The ps connector at hot side pipe,...taken care of. Have the insulation there for that reason, rest of it been deleted.
member "stinson-108" replaced his uppies and when he pulled the collector apart, the gaskets fell apart, with NO sign of leak/soot anywhere...so, that gots me think'n.
BIGORANGE....nope, havnt found the cure yet to this problem....however, with a new IPR, i DID notice a slight 1-2psi increase and it gets there quicker, but no where near, what it was, prior to turbo going boom.

The wastegate is on top and I think I adjusted it with pressurized air... so it bleeds boost when the arm swings to the passenger side.

They said need a new turbo. There is a slight catch when you spin the compressor wheel and the turbine they said looks like the gap on one side between the wheel and housing is bigger on one side then the other but it doesn't touch. Got a new turbo today gonna put it on today if it ever stops raining!! Before I do though was thinking about pulling the uppipes and making sure there is no leak again. Is there a gasket I can get from somewhere for the stock uppipes that anyone knows of?? Thanks again everyone!

Had already rebuilt it. They told me they could go through it but it may be a couple hours labor, at 110 bucks an hour, and they may go through it and tell me I need a new one anyways.
