geez i could imagine ......now what if there is a small bit i dont suck up for instance will it cause damage to the motor ...

Yes. You dont want any bits left behind ideally.

How did you manage it anyhow? gapping the plugs incorrectly?

anyway to know if its all out ??/ nope me being me just lseng them and thene pulled it out and im like wtf!!! but i heard some crap bout a porclian magnet or something.....i might try both ways to make sure its all out turbo off intake bloked hose in the throttle body blow it out with the compressor?

my mate had this happed, he thought he had it all out and bam, wrecked motor. He went to great lengths to get it all out too. Vac, etc.

Maybe a borescope mate?

+1 for having a really good look before you start it up.

Cheers,

A bore scope is an optical device that you put down the spark plug hole to inspect the bore with, sort of like a camera.

There expensive and probably not something you buy for a one off excercise. You may be able to borrow one but.

Lay off on the torque next time you put them in. :)

One thing you could to to make sure you got it, is throw a stocking over the end of one of the vacume pipes when you put them together, that way it will still flow air, but the bit of the plug will get caught in the stocking.

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
