Turbo as a mechanical sensor

[bebolagalas T]

Did you know turbocharger works as a mechanical sensor for the engine... how??
which mean when it damage,it can tell us what actually happen inside (by turbo post postmortem) the engine or what made the turbo failure...

for example...

"The bearings are usually destroyed by either oil contamination, oil starvation or oil coking...Heavy grooving or pitting of the bearing surface usually indicates dirty oil, possibly due to inadequate oil filtration. Check for a plugged oil filter. Once an oil filter becomes clogged and it's bypass valve opens, unfiltered oil flows to the turbo and the rest of the engine.

"The condition of the compressor and turbine wheels... Cracks can be the result of metal fatigue, but nicked bent or damaged blades (turbine wheel or comp wheel) can only be caused by foreign objects. If the compressor blades are badly eroded, unfiltered air has been entering the intake system. Check for a missing, torn or poor fitting air filter...




Moral of the story - Don't F**k Turbo Repairer or Don't blame turbo..check the engine 1st..then later baru F**k them if necessary but remember we r Malaysian-- dont f**k2 --No good
*proud to be Malaysian


cheers..

muahaha...

BOV r turbo xcessory...sometime it become necessary sometime it don't necessary..so it depend on the engine setup..
...poor selecting turbo for the engine,compressor surge can occur and damaging the turbo compressor wheel..that y some turbo used anti surge aka ported shroud compressor housing..

choose the rite turbo my fren :slug:..when ur turbocharger problem.. can send to me.. i'll check for u for free..

my car also didnt use any bov. turbo didnt blow but the engine blew due to famous RB oiling problem hehehe. i was only quoting a famous turbo specialist complaining that some of his customers experienced turbo failures due to lack of BOV

bro..for me personally(my opinion)..turbo is the main factor..there a lot of compressor wheel with various characteristic..lack of selecting the rite comp wheel resulting improper match to the engine characteristic..

example:
Using High Pressure Ratio (Big Comp) but Engine cant support the turbo makes the turbo running in surge (flow instability) area...continue operating the turbo lead to premature turbo failure due to heavy thrust loading...

wat im try to say is..Bov can be the issue-if we used wrong turbo..

y some DRAGSTAR dont use BOV on their machine?? :questionmark:
:stupido2:

*ps: something to share n discuss here - dont mean to be GURU OR CHAMPION :rolleyes:

i want to add a question, y does all turbo cars come with a plumb back valve :P
