That's what densely packed bar-and-plate intercoolers are for, to catch any stray turbo pieces.. :)
Damn! I have been wondering for years what those do.:))
Sorry to hear about the problems, hope your back up and running soon.

Exactly... Most the pieces were in the lower intercooler piping right before the intercooler inlet. Nothing actually got through it from what I found. Also, the GM maf has a screen type netting that wouldnt allow anything else through and that wasnt damaged at all and there was nothing stuck in it. I got lucky.
Thanks for the manifold Mo... Works perfectly and looks pretty good too. Very happy with it.

I dont know why I have such bad luck with turbos. Oh well. We'll see if it happens again!
Is that at that engine shop?
No man... I will never take my car there for anything.
It was at Zenke Auto in Nodine. About 15 miles south-west of Winona on I-90.
