It was an 034EFI High Output turbo.  This thing has been through allot,
including pushing 33 psi of boost through my old motor.  That's a PR of 4+
at my altitude.  I recently swapped everything over to a new bearing section
to fix an oil leak so I'm not sure if I just over spun it or if I screwed up
the install.  I'm going to take everything apart and check it out tonight.
I did notice a funny discoloration on the exhaust shaft when I had it
apart.  It looked like a crack, but it didn't feel like a crack.  It
wouldn't polish out though, and I bet a magnaflux would have revealed more.
We'll see if that's where it failed.
