HPA K04
So, I've had this turbo for about a year and it has ran wonderfully.
However, In July i ran a boost leak test on the turbo for the hell of it and i have a small leak coming from HPA's Turbo Outlet V-Band Clamp assembly. I've been through hell ever since replacing parts they've given me, replacing o rings etc, nothing fixes it. It's a poorly designed clamp assembly with poorly machined parts. I seem to hit max boost fine and car seems to run great. However, i can hear the leak when i get on it full throttle.
Currently waiting on more parts from HPA which has been over 2 months now. A new turbo replaced under warranty has been mentioned by HPA, but im hoping it doesn't come down to that. I would avoid HPA's Turbo kit just for the horrible clamp design.
