[USER=21926]@smurfslayer[/USER] good point. When we removed the charge pipes this time we had shrapnel in the AMS down pipes on both passenger and driver sides. Even found it in the air filter. I could see if shrapnel from the passenger side failure got that far that it would damage the driver side compressor wheel. good catch!


I spoke with the ford tech this morning and we are going to pull the heads again. The ford hot line has suggested we look at the oil passages inside the block to the filters that lead to the oil feed lines. We did replace them even though the original ones were not clogged and had nothing in them. So the heads are coming off again. I'll have both turbos in hand later today and I'm taking the to a turbo shop where we will be pulling them apart. This shop says the can diagnose the insides and give a more clear path of what the issue is with out sending back to Garrett for diagnosis. They've said it's one of or a mixture of 3 things, Boost leak, oil starvation or air starvation however based off of pictures they think oil starvation but want to see the turbos and failed parts first hand.
