Just got a 04 FXT, 45k miles. I have been doing alot of research since i bought it and have heard about untimely turbo death from shrapnel thrown into the turbo from the cat in the up pipe.
-Anyone know about how many miles it takes for this to start happening?
-Should I replace the up pipe asap or is this someting I can do somewhere closer to 100k miles?
-I am pretty good working on my own cars but never owned a turbocharged vehicle - i have read that it is a major pita to swap the up pipe - is this someting i should consider doing myself?
thanks for any help
