Default Turbos blown! I can't belive this! It was only my second day!!!...
...I took the car out this morning and was having such a great time with the beast that I let go in first gear. If you remember I have the tip recode which allows 1st gear to hit the red line.

So I press the gas, the car just rockets off and all of a sudden I hear a loud noise and see smoke, at the same time the engine seems to lose most of its power. I was still able to drive it to the dealer but both turbos are blown....

I can't believe this, just my second day. I should have known... This is going to be expensive...

Oh my, what have I done to my baby?

Maybe you predicted something that is going to happen.

Potomac2.7T's latest mod has gotten some major attention from this board.

Default What do you mean by 2nd day?? and also...
When you stepped on the gas... Did you redline, and if so, for how long before the disaster happen?

Hopefully it's under warranty?
