Just toasted my second ct-26 50 trim, in approx 5000 miles. i know im not having oil issues , or any cooling issues. What could be the reason these are failing. Also if i were to switch to another turbo what turbo would you guys suggest. i am looking for something that is going to spool fairly fast but be able to produce 17 psi whitout any problems

It's probably the shop you're having them rebuilt at.
I had problems with a shop in Ca a few years ago, I went through several in a year. ATS did an excellent job on my current Supra turbo. I haven't had a lot of problems with the CT26s, even running higher than stock boost. My first Alltrac had 173xxx on the original turbo, though I only boosted that to 10 PSI. A 50 trim shouldn't have a problem boosting 17 PSI, the RC turbos don't, and neither do the Supra turbos, both have a slightly smaller compressor wheel and the same exhaust housing. --------------------  |
