... with it's current PS2 turbo. Starting the swap to a PS750 and so looking forward to it. I feel the PS2 was getting boring and maxed out so time for something new to keep me entertained for a while, lol. (Ignore the oil on the mat under the front of the car, I keep forgetting to wipe that off but it is a BMW so I don't really need to explain what that is, lol).

LOL, I thought the title might catch a few by surprise. I can take all the pix people want, I have my original factory turbo still so I can take pix of stock, PS2 and PS750.

"Welded on" at what point? In the pic you can see the flap is welded to the arm and the arm on the outside is welded to the shaft.
Cheers.thanks for confirming, I thought it was looking at pic..
There was a failure of a flap falling off..some flaps are peened on as opposed to welded. Can make for a weak joint..there was a mention of this way way back. Not sure if any early deliveries had "peened" flaps.
