Thank you for the info. Maybe I'm just being paranoid. Just concerns me it runs these temps empty level ground. If it hit 1000-1200 on a hard pull up a good size hill I wouldn't be to worried. Currently it's running 900-1000 loaded on the level ground 5-10 seconds into to the hill it hits 1100-1200 and i have to back way out. Then proceed to down shift and use 30-40% throttle to keep around 1000. Should I push it a little harder?

Would a 3406E turbo oil feed and drain be in the same spot as the C15?

Another thing to check if it hasn't already been said is pull the intake elbow off the front of turbo and spin the propeller with your hand with a little bit of side force to see if wheel is contacting housing or if
the fins might have nicks or dings in them. -
SAR Thanks this.
