I mean the way it was setup, since its just an oil drain i cant imagine much oil goes through that.. But then again I don't know.. And I know you said your not sayin thats what cause it. I just don't see that being the issue..

Oil drain is not the problem it has no restrictions

Iv been told by alot of different people that bullseye turbos are junk? Idk how true this is
I really don't care I was a happy customer intel now

I really just want my truck back on the road and no problems

This is the second Bullseye turbo that I have heard of taking a dump and grenading. I also dont know if they are junk turbos or not but it would be interesting to know what caused it to fail.

Was the truck able to survive the fires?? Damn that sucks. Sorry to hear that.

Really sorry to hear this let me know if i can help unfortunately if the turbos more than a year old or if you are second owner that most likely won't cover it

Well guys I feel like digging a hole and burying my self.
Iv been busy all day at work.
I got to my truck and puled the turbo off of it.
First thing I noticed which scared me was the intake for air to compressor had shards of metal signing thru
Here's the pics

Cac is metal contaminated
Well the bat wheel blew up.
Intake elbow has slight metal debris in it

So what do yal think?
How much metal entered engine?
Keep in mindi drove it up a trailer and off of one

Ouch...there isn't much left of that wheel! Hopefully the intercooler filtered most of it for you, but there really isn't anyway to say. I would pull the intake manifold, clean it out, get a new intercooler, and if you have access to a inspection camera, try to take a look inside. Otherwise clean it up, put it together and pucker that butthole up on startup!

Make sure you clean out the inside of your air filter too. It'll push alot of metal back into the filter.
