Rotary Turbos and Turbo bags!

Guess not, thanks for the heads up.

No worries, I always wanted to prove that TURBO BAGS are fucking shit, and as you can see they 100% are

I suppose like I said in my first post if you are a show pony or drug racer or generally some fagot who does not actually use the power of your car often then you may find that "nah man, bags are fine, never ever had a problem" you will only never have a problem if you do not use the power (I.E. Generate enough heat!@ consistently) to degrade the housing.

My last housing was a 1.00A/R twin scroll size, and it was on for a few thousand km until it became a restriction and I swapped it out, it ran a bag but because the power level was low and not as much true proper high speed testing was done it did not look this bad. It takes BIG POWER and repeated power after power runs to accumulate the "heat" in the housing and not let it dissipate to over stress the housing. (NOTE: one or two consecutive laps on a low speed track racing for a plastic trophy!! is not high stress LOL) Its just proof of how hard I run my set ups in the name of true proper endurance testing and in that environment BAGS are a KUUUUUUNT!
