If the vanes stick at all then they can easily spike. Again, that's an control/engine management issue and not the fault of the design of the VNT turbo itself. I agree that the stock vane control stinks and causes almost all of the issues.What about them do you feel is junk? Do you think they should be designed to withstand ingesting something without breaking fins. LOL!
its almost like the turbo ate something.. i thought it ingested the compressor nut, but it was there.. i havent had it off to look yet, but i can feel blades MISSING.. it has atleast 2 blades missing on one side, a long blade, and a short one..idk how it could have ingested something tho.. i have a decent air filter, and ZERO holes in my turbo intake.. something bounced around the turbo inlet, and messed up the compressor wheel bad.. maybe i will find whatever it was in my intercooler when i drain and clean it..
