Just reading on another post and i always wondered can you get the turbo that hot that it would crack and cause water that flows round the core to leak into exhaust housing?

But thus causing no ill effect to the running of the car or damage to the seals & bearing on the turbo shaft?

or is this impossible and if the core cracked enough to let water get into the exhaust system it would also damage the shaft, seals & bearing?

not too sure Matt, but can you not just dsable the water supply to the turbo and then go from there.

indeed ya could but doesn't really solve it if there is crack in the housing?

(This ain't a problem i'm having) Just curious thats all

Yes its possible.

No real way to solve it, once its cracked, its only really fit for scrap just like if you crack your block.

Ive never heard of one cracking that bad, but I guess its possible.
