Thread: cracked turbo manifold

just doing it now and it lloks like there is oil going through the cooler hose and is leaking big time what does this mean

so i got the maniflod of and had a good reason why the plug blew of it has massive cracks in it, question is can it be welded or do i need a new one if so where and how much also should there be all the soot around the turbo or have i blown that to

put the new manifold on and at 2500 it makes a severe whistle/scream type noise any ideas where to go from here
the turbo still spools up and checked and it still has oil going in through the feed line

just thought about something would the fact i have had both mufflers removed have anything to do with this

comeon surely someone must be able to help me

looks like the wastegate is set up wrong anyone got any advice on where it should be sitting what is the best way to get it spot on

This looks like a dark area mate, not to many seam to know much about the turbo side of things by the looks.
I am sure if you get the work shop manual it should be able to guide you to the right way to set it up. I am unsure, but surely in this day & age thereis a place to get the manuals online
Failing that I guess you need to seek out a diesel or turbo specialist.

I know I wasn't any help, but I would have thought someone here would have known what you were after
Do you know what caused the manifold to crack ??
