Sorry to sound stupid but trying to learn.

Am i right in thinking the turbo(s) are creating more boost than the engine is able to consume and therefore the compressed air is being falsed back through the turbo/blades?

Its about 2 million times worse than the surge you get when letting off the throttle.

That does next to no damage, its not under any load then.

Comp surge under load will smash turbos to fuck in no time.

See what you mean, the shafts etc... must be under enormous pressure from boost levels going in and back out again etc...
