Yes there is. But they will not warranty your turbo unless you buy their expensive grease. I believe you bought the Travis kit.

Dang it. Yeah i have the "Travis" kit, and everything still works. The process of getting the kit was a mess though.

They wouldn't tell me what kind of grease it is when I spoke with Comp. My only option was to buy that expensive grease but it should last forever. Pro tip: Buy from jegs to save on shipping.

You lucky sob!! Just curious but what kind of issues have you had with their turbos? I don’t have a lot of miles on mine but they spool fast and I can hear them spin for maybe a minute after I turn the car off.

What seems to be the issue is because there is no thrust bearing and back pressure creates turbulence and compressor wheel touches the housing. Comp told me it was the turbo kit I was running and that they were getting tired of doing warranties. Seems to have been the hot side was a bit to small. Seems finally this has been corrected but Comp was fed up and was about to cut off this turbo kit maker/vendor.

What size turbine size did you have? I have the 6062's with the .82 turbines.

Is that something you can hear? Sometimes I hear what sounds like a whine coming from one turbo, its at low RPMs before spooling up and is intermittent.

You will not be able to hear them touching housing. Car still ran with good even with compressor wheel damaged.
