I had finaly got the car finished and setup on the rollers yesterday producung BIG power this time, when the oilpump went dead on the way home
I dont know what happend other then it lost oilpressure little by little apparently, and when the lifters start to complain he shut the engine down...
He then testet the pressure at the turbo and 0-psi

I dont think there is to much damage cause he was driving at low rpm and the engine isent "dry" from oil on the cams or anything, but he couldent have heard anything because it is really noise from the exhaust and gearbox

Sad to hear that.

Makes you wonder if you actually dare to buy a new oil pump these days?
