Audi TT VR6 Turbo

A friend’s VR6 Turbo is blown-up!

I just came across a friend’s TT… Poor guy now has a blown VR6 Turbo engine! Result of a wastegate hose that went from severely cracked to broken… In a split second, the boost went from about 12 pounds to over 20! … ” And then … white smoke in the back of the car and no torque …” The pics below leave leave no room for imagination.

So guys, if you are running similar projects, make time to check that tiny hose… You never know.

Cheers,

Andre

I started this blog just recently because I have so much fun modifying my MK1 TT... that I need to let the world know! And it's also a good reference when looking back at my mods. Ciao for now! Andre
