Yeah but would rather put the $1000 to $2000 to something other than fixing fords problems than on a set off expensive pipes.

Miss_Aly Donating Members 615 Member For: 21y 28d Gender: Female Posted 19/04/07 08:57 AM Author Share Posted 19/04/07 08:57 AM We are still trying to figure out what caused the problem, we looked in the cross over pipe and only a very small amount of paint flake missing but no way this would of caused it. It's almost like a screw or bolt or something metal has gone through it by the scratch marks it left in the turbo.Will keep you posted Aly Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/34011-turbo-blades-failure/page/3/#findComment-523604 Share on other sites More sharing options...
