I had just read this on tech. Have to say it is pretty cool you have the last pull on video. Not a lot of people get that at least. Excited to see where you go from here.

 

**** rob, im really sad... its a real sad day, your truck was my inspiration. But oh well, im guessing better things will come, and your truck set a record no one else has been able to.. We gotta be glad youre ok and nothing happened to you, thats the most important thing.. Best of luck on your next build!

 

sorry for the loss, sad day for all us 4.8 lovers. your truck is the reason for my boost addiction. she was the baddest 4.8 i've seen yet. can't wait to see what you build next. would love to see a forged 5.3. hint hint

 

Keep your heads up guys.. The last pull was hard to watch for me to haha, but she kept in enough to keep me safe so still one badass soldier.

Turbo looks ok to me unless someone see's a reason to have it sent in and looked at. It ate some aluminum as i said, but housing caught the larger stuff. Still need to know is the oil feed above the oil filter post filter oiled?









Inside the Housing..

 

Local got some good video of her big dyno hits..

I'm pretty sure it is. Just checked an F-body pan and it's filtered, so i'm assuming the truck pans are the same.

 

Flow rating of straight thru Borla? I blew thru mine in only a few months, top and bottom... The heck man.

 

My old s475 ate pieces of catalytic converter and lived Those b-dubs are tough!

 

The wheel looks OK from a pic, but you can't tell from a pic. If the blade touched the housing at all, you will need to send it out and make sure it is still balanced.

 

sucks to hear but it was only time before she gave out. im sure whatever goes in there will be great, but if you have the time to do it, may as well go forged, regardless of the size.
