    So where's all the weight???

    For the average Joe the weighbridge will be close enough...... If you're racing it as a class car you'll more than likely have a set of scales or access to them. You also need to factor in the fuel load and the driver weight if you're going to corner weight the car.

    Please tell me WHY!

    Matt: It really depends on Turbo type and which bearings it has. I suspect starvation as you're reporting abnormal amounts of wear in a short time. This could be something as simple as an incorrectly assembled hose fitting, what did you change when you went back to the CT?
