The above photos should be a good motivation to get new injectors when doing turbo conversion. Hint hint Woohoo.....

Actually, I've been trying really hard to get some new injectors. Hmm.

I don't want to make Tom any sadder than he allready is.... but his turbo is FUBAR as well..... metal bits in the oil got into the turbo's oil feed line

It just goes to show that even the most accomplished turbo engine builders can have unexpected problems (such as an injector imbalance)

He wasn't even racing around when it happened.... he was driving into a supermarket at low speed....and the engine just died on him.

I feel sorry for him..... he went all summer without his GSi Turbo.

At least he got to dyno and drive around in a bunch of hot cars this summer at the tuning shop where he works part time.
