Turbo overspeeding

Hey guys one of my vendors sends out a newsletter and this month they had a short but informative article on overspeeding. I think it really pertains to this platform with the size of the turbos and the power levels we are running. A lot of turbo problems can be pinned on build error or parts failure when they are in fact caused by overspeed at the root of their problem. We are taking every step to ensure long life for our turbos such as the upgraded thrust option as thrust wear along with over speed is prob where 90% of turbo failures lie. Bottomline, when tuning always err on the side of conservation on boost levels if possible, and if you are running your turbos upgraded or not on the ragged edge. Do not expect to get the full lifespan out of them. Its like driving a tire well past its rated MPH rating everyday and wondering why you are sitting on the side of the road with a blow out. Everyone have a good weekend.
