    Thats funny you said that....turbo kits dont kill your motor...Its the driver and how much boost you put to them....I never had one turbo kit that damaged my motor until I stepped up on more boost!

    lol, it didn't kill his motor like he said it did. the pistons rings were shot for sure....the teg was boosted for a few years with 2-3 ebay turbos. the range of boost used is unknown.

    the seals went out, oil was dripping from it. no bueno. lol.
