So I'm driving along, and I hear an all too familiar POP and loss of power. I immediately shut the engine down and coast into a parking lot expecting a charge pipe blew off somewhere. Not so lucky.
I see oil pouring all over the ground near the rear of the engine, so I play it safe.. call in, wait for a tow.
I get home and start checking around only to find THIS:
The entire compressor housing had sheared off!
When I reached down to feel how bad the compressor blade had been chewed up - knowing it wouldn't be salvageable anyway - I didn't feel anything at all. The compressor blade was gone.
Any idea what might have caused this? Vehicle details and mods are in my signature... keep in mind the EVRY mod is on a momentary button only activated at WOT. I was nowhere near WOT when this happened.
