Its all the damaging turbons made by the turbo. They are much harder on the motor than blowons.
Both cause hardons, however.

Are you sure that is what they are? I was always under the impression that they were called Fuc*tards...

Constantly, but I have a lot of turbons to deal with - more than most.

I just change my lubricant often and carefully watch my eccentric shaft for excessive wear.

Those precautions are definitely a must . W/o the propper amount of lubricant the eccentric shaft runs a good risk of damage due to friction. The worst is a good lookin throttle body w/o the propper amount of lube to sustain the hardons.

Its not just the friction that damages your eccentric shaft, but the impact forces of excessive hardons.

Neah,
Excessive hardons don't damage the shaft, in fact they make it bigger, stronger however over-spinning in neutral may damage the engine.

Wow... it was just a yes or no question...... has it been released or not. All it required was a simple yes or no. No need to fly off the handle like that. but thanks for the hint anyways.
