I just finished my 6port turbo, we'll see how long it lasts. Fun to drive so far.

Seal breakage damage is damage...has nothing to do with whether you are NA or turbo, how much power/boost you were making, or how hard you were driving it, or how soon afterwards you shut the engine off. Seals break due to wear or force, of course the more worn they are the less force it takes to break them. But a 200k mile NA with a broken seal due to wear can look the same or worse than a 10k mile rebuilt single turbo FD making 400rwhp that broke a seal.

That damage looks pretty light, really.

turboing with the stock 6 port sleeves cant be a good idea, you must have had high EGT's

i would have thought they restrict flow out of the exhaust port, same as having a small exhaust housing on your turbo, of course i may be wrong

6 port sleeves are in the intake.....


If you are talking about the diffuser in the exhaust port that may be a different story...
