Using rotomaster replacement cores, so far only done the front turbo and i definitelyinstalled the new o ring. On the outside the cores are identical.

Turbo Rebuild Troubleshooting
Yeah that'll be the first thing I do. I was initially concerned I did something wrong when rebuilding as well, which is entirely possible as with anything...but, I followed all install procedures and followed the torque sheet, made sure everything was clean, did everything i could to be...- SHOuldnt_be_here

Turbo Rebuild Troubleshooting
Checked all the clearances before install, everything spun freely no rubbing. Installed it and primed it, still spun freely with no issues. Gonna put her back up today after work and see if i can't track it down. Could it be the actuator for the wastegate? The vacuum line from the actuator to...- SHOuldnt_be_here

Turbo Rebuild Troubleshooting
Not that I can tell as of yet, used all new gaskets and it sounds enormously different than the other exhaust leaks I've had. Literally like a weedwacker string flying through the air. I've looked all over the web for the same/similar issue and no dice.- SHOuldnt_be_here

New Owner 2011 non-pp
Yeah thats the route I plan on taking her I think, she's a daily but it's a pretty soft drive and I'm "mechanically inclined" and have plenty of professional connections when it comes to information, parts, and labor that's out of my skill set. I think there's a lot of potential to really bring...- SHOuldnt_be_here

New Owner 2011 non-pp
Hey all, as chance would have it I've found myself behind the wheel of a 2011 SHO and oh boy, i think ive fallen in love. Had little to no knowledge of this car before purchase, and it was the only vehicle in my price range after the old Lincoln threw in the towel. She's got 140k, a small bit of...- SHOuldnt_be_here
