Message	First set was installed in September. Failed after < 1000 miles. Second set was installed in April. Failed after < 200 miles. These are full T-28s. I don't know what CAUSED the failure, but definitely the seals went bad quick. My symptoms in both cases were primarily HUGE clouds of smoke after letting off from boost. Some smoking during boost and at times smoking at idle, but not often. Good luck with whatever it is. I hope it's NOT the turbos, but based on my experience it's a good probability. Greg (Dallas)
