Alex,

Tony is right — what we typically see is that when utilizing the standard “factory” mixing elbow…. more often than not, water is let back into the turbo exhaust housing which as you could imagine has multiple adverse effects on just about everything… first step is to assess whether or not this is happening in your case, odds are IT IS.

If it is the case, then until the root cause is mitigated, you will be essentially kicking the can down the road…

Now if you’re also getting water dripping externally onto the turbo housing, etc. then you will see external rusting and corrosion to boot…

When you can, let’s get a peek inside of the turbo exhaust side outlet and see what’s going on in there…

Also, what RPM can the engine make MAXIMUM at wide open throttle (WOT)????
