Ya, we had a new rebuild on a 3B'd 4kq race car, seemed to be running well
until the second pass of the Virginia Hill Climb, turbo actually grenaded,
the exh. turbine shattered with pieces of it piercing the hood and inner
fender well radially, burned up the MAF harness pretty good by the time the
car got back down the hill, we pulled it and put a custom jobbie on it, bout
all my expereince with it  =)

Car was a little more laggy than K24 but not too bad, top end was strong
compared to K24, spooled up by about 3krpm versus 2200 with K24.
