I have gone through two fresh rebuilds in the last year and some change. The latest one had a non gated 1.0 turbine housing and a wicked wheel.
I have 160's with stock nozzles, intake/exhaust mods, and boost/pryo gauges.
I keep an eye on the temps and always have kept it in range. I never run the boost over 30psi and rarely at that. I mostly keep it at or below 25psi for a max boost. I have no boost leaks, a clean intake tract, and have checked lube oil pressure at the pedistal. Cold oil pressure at idle at the ped was 40psi and came up to 60 with a little throttle input. Just did an oil change and strained everything out of curiosity. Oil was the usual black but debris free. I even cut open the oil filter and checked the pleats for debris and found nothing.
Am I just asking too much from a modded stock charger or could I possibly have another issue causing failures?
