Its a TII engine, installed it a year and half ago after detonating at 160mph.....
This carnage however is from one small compressor wheel nut.
As you can see in the following pictures, the shredded nut and compressor housing which as mixed with oil leaking through the compressor oil seal laid its route through the intake pipes, intercooler, and into the engine. The fine particles of the shredded bits then shredded my housings and apex seals :(
The apex seals are Rotary Aviation Super Seals 3mm. I will probably reuse these housing since I already did some cooling jacket mod to the spark plug area, but I will need to send them off to Goopy Performance to get it refurbished.
