from what the bloke has said on the phone its going to be bench tested he said if its blue its been starved of oil it the turbines are damaged something has gone through it which one has a broken end they would be down to me and if its a inside problem its them so how do i know

So are you saying one of the blades has a broken end? If so it will run off balace and oil will piss out the seals like there is no tomorrow.

 

If so then what could have caused the damage?

Oh boy, you really need to learn to exercise your rights roly.

 

If you know that you refitted the turbo correctly then it is the part which is to blame, and therefore they (speedways) will replace it under their 12 month warranty.

 

It would be bloody difficult to refit a turbo incorrectly, the only way that I can see an impeller blade being damaged is if the unit were dropped hard. Did you drop it?

 

Don't imagine that just because they want to inspect the turbo, they won't be replacing it. It is possible that your communication skills have 'rubbed' them up the wrong way slightly! :D
