    We will be reallocating all of the aftermarket parts to a few cars here (My spyder, Hans' satin black car, etc), and returning this car back to stock, and listing it back up for sale.

    Got a battery for it. I should say I took the one back that had a dead cell and got it replaced under warranty.

    What would cause both of them to fail?

    Obviously you are too stupid to know that MHI stands for Mitsubishi Heavy Industry. Knockoffs are not MHI.

    I see people buy turbos marked genuine MHI all day long and are quality sweat shop turbos. I see it mostly when people send there tdo5s in to be rebuilt and converted to B20G's and then my friend austin has to break the bad news to his customers that the turbos they got are actually china junk. I didnt say they were for sure cause I have no way of seeing but that would explain their such short lives. Its okay stealthee, I understand ur problems.

    They're for certain real MHI's? Man that's wierd... Pressure in the crankcase? I wouldn't think two seals would go bad like that. What's the setup type, oil/weoght, pcv setup, catch can, intake, bov, intercoolers. Cams, heads, timing at TDC and on decel?

    Seems strange to a few of us too! You think they're rebuilds or NIB?
