Blown Turbo Lady came tonight!
I was driving home from Easter dinner and while I was getting onto the higway I got into boost then noticed a sudden loss of power... I looked at my guage and it wasn't boosting. I looked in my rear view; there was a Cumulus cloud of white smoke... I def knew right then it was done along with a tinckering sound in my driver side turbo. That turbo was screaing before for about 2 months before tonight. I called AAA and they towed it to the place I am getting the ko4's installed ( I already have them) . So it looks like stage 3 is coming sooner than expected! ordering a clutch prob tomorrow as well as inlets/hardware. going to go down to the shop in the morning to tell them why there is a random s4 there. lol.
fueling to be bought in a few weeks. Very cheap and custom
Just thought I would share my good/bad experience.

Question. If you already had K04's, how come you didn't install them before?
Much better to meet turbo lady on your terms rather than hers. Main issue is that depending how turbos blow, can take out DP's or engine.

I was waiting for about a month from now to do it
buy everything I need and then bring it in. so it's gonna be a little bit of a rush, but I went to ESP today and scheduled everything for next week and Dave was extremely helpful. He might be able to get a price discount for a CM clutch.
I'm getting psyched!
