Turbo Destruction NEED ANSWERS

[TRBOMOFO]

14 psi off/on driving for 2.5 yearsdriving one night starting sounding like a supercharger

Found this

Comparision

So I Figure:

14 psi + 2.5 years = bearing failure = self destruction with shaft play of compressor wheel

up and down AND in and out shaft play

I got another T25 for money sake

and then after a 2 months but like 2 weeks of driving

then



nick in all the fins

NO Shaft play and still builds boost

so i dont know what is causing this but have ideas

IDEA:

when the last one tore apart i tore down the block and intercooler and cleaned everything out

checked to see if i had something loose or hole in the intake system NOTHING

i put it back together

This time i was moving around the air intake filter and it was full of large compressor scrapes (like 1/16th by 1/16th size)

i am pretty sure they are not from this turbo since there are nicks and scratches not total destruction

so i figure it is from the other turbo AND MY MISTAKE i should have checked and cleaned the air intake filter

QUESTIONS:

but HOW WOULD THE METAL GET BACK UP THE AIR INTAKE AND INTO THE FILTER??????????

CAN I run this turbo still or will it be unbalanced and destroy itself??

I believe it will be unbalance and i should replace it but i need conformation

sorry for long post and questions but I need help and some solutions

I dunno if compressor surge can do that?

More than likely, there's debris still in the tract that's doing that to you. You may want to make sure there's nothing clinging to the inside of the filter.

yeah thats what i got with the filter

and i am going to replace all of it to try and fix this crap

but i dont know how it got all the way up in the filter???

also if anybody has a T25 or T28 in good condition i am looking haha
