turbo probs

I think my turbos have just died. i was bombing down a slip road this morning on the way to santa pod and between 3-4000rpm the was a loud click and the power just died. had a look under the bonnet and nothing seems to have come apart. the engine runs fine, no warning lights on the dash. drives ok just no power and i cant here the whistle from the 1st turbo anymore and it dosent feel like it wants to go over 3000rpm. its a jap spec with a recently fitted blitz nur spec r and de-cat with 70k. Are my turbos dead and if so do i need to replace both or just the first one whice is the one i think has gone? any help will be pukka.

First thing to check is the intercooler hoses, to make sure they haven't blown off. Most likely is the one that goes in to the intercooler down under the drivers side wing.

2nd thing to check is your bank account !!!!

Danny,

Have you got a boost gauge mate? If so, are you seeing any boost at all? If no boost then, as SimonB said, it might well be a problem with the intercooler ducting. Although mine has never come apart on the side Simon mentioned, mine always seems to blow apart down by the side of the radiator on the passenger side. You can see it better if you take the battery and battery tray out.

Good luck.

Do you have black smoke ????

Been in a car with a turbo that blew and its was like a smoke bomb went off under the bonnet. Loads of white smoke everywhere. I am leaning toward a blown Intercooler pipe as well. Make sure to check them all!

cheers guys problem sorted. the hose that comes out of the carb thats linked near the bottom of the rad on the passanger side popped off. took the battery+tray out to fix it. glad it aint the turbos got some big plans for some big twins next year.

Yeah, same place I was on about. Told ya !

Interesting to hear that you have a carburetor though
