Default INNOVATIVE TURBO:TAKES A SHIT LESS THAN A MILE!

well this just sucks ass!i got my innovative deull bb gt30 rebuild awhile back for $584.00 and had it on the car ready to make its first test run.everything was fine on warm up then i took it out went through first then second and heard a bad sound of a toasted turbocharger.i pulled in and could not beleive what i saw.the comp wheel was rubbing the comp cover and was done,just like that!at 9 psi to start i check anything that made me think i had something to do with what it did.theres nothing,return line perfect and the feed is an earls -4 line and filter that flowed oil just fine.nothing got sucked into the inlet,so what else?a bad rebuild is the only thing i came up with and its a fact.theres nothing i did to cause this and innovative said they never seen this before.they also said they will take care of IT AND I HOPE THEY DO.FUCK I DID NOT EVEN MAKE IT A MILE!this really sucks assholes since i can drive the car now after a year of putting it togather.

Did you prime the turbo?

Turbo disconnected and oil feed disconnected, crank the car until you see oil?
