Pics and Hours Update

As of Friday the 25th of January I have about 200 hours.

the last couple weeks have been hectic. A management change in the turbo shop and we are still reorganizing stuff that has been left there for probably 4 year s or so.  Then about a week ago an IHI turbo came in with a pretty ugly compressor wheel.



It would seem like a nut or something landed in the housing and ground against the vanes  before finally going though the turbo and into what ever was beyond it.  The inner cooler  the intake and into the cylinders, we all know that metal had to go some where.

Update with Hours

To date since the end of school in December my hours i have worked is 120

I have worked on probably 30 turbos in the three weeks i have been working there and last week took apart 5 Volvo Penta Superchargers.

I have learned quite a bit in taking apart, cleaning and reassembling the turbos and super chargers.

Wish i had pics to show off some but i will get some soon
