I was on the mezzanine when this pickup was running the dyno and blew its turbo. This is not my video though since mine had some choice words included and this one is closer. You can see when he was hitting the different stages of nitrous by the truck miss firing. Though the exhaust turbine was quickly expelled out the exhaust, the compressor wheel had no sign of damage and spun freely after the run. I believe the engine was reved to about 9k when it let go. Also, there was so much smoke that someone from about 1/2 a mile away called 911 reporting a fire and the fire department showed up.

Re: Cummins turbo blow
everyone did, I picked the best one I could find. I flinched worse then that, cussed a few times, and then I was over taken by so much smoke, it was literally blacked out.flyboy71 wrote:Dang, the camera guy flinched right at the good part
