My knowledge on science is way better than you. I scored A always, my favorite subject in the past. So many turbo diesel using VGT, so where's the overheat issue that you claimed? They are still in 1 piece, good as new even after breaching 600,000km in the company trucks i'm driving back then. Modern day VGT, they always have protective layer that isolate heat away from sensitive part.
Instead, your crap modded car on obsolete turbo probably at junkyard or non-roadworthy before reaching that mileage and driven that roughly. Your crap car turbo with crap piping manifold prone to overheat. No wonder those crap modified turbo always have boost meter to watch out not to over boost and crack the intake manifold. In and out also prone to overheat. No wonder you think VGT will overheat if your knowledge only limited to crap obsolete tech. Will you say the wastegate prone to overheat too because it's in exhaust manifold. EGR also you want to say overheat?
Oh my, A in sciences....you never cease to amaze us....this got to be [B]the greatest joke of the year on FnF....lol the heck out of me....if my jaw can physically drop, literally this causes it to do so....i wonder can request to permanently pin this, really historical achievement in FnF
Another added failed method of trying to boost own credibility after claiming :
- working in car related industry (yes, we know that you worked managing a fleet of industrial diesel vehicles and trucks)
- so many "buddies" working in car marketing (you mentioned it too many times)
- so many internal connection to car technicians (yupe, the one that told you belt VVT can slip)
- approaching 40 years of "observing" this industry (wow....i guess we are all "babies" in your sight right?)
And now this grade "A" in science.....when you mention this, you expect us to kowtow ar

You expect us to believe this kind of "facts" even if you claim to have phd in thermodynamics.....please la....you're an embarrassment to your alumni from primary to university and also all your working collleagues
No, you don't these to back your credibility....what you write here is trash to put it politely....i dare say that those AhBeng/Ah Lian half past 6 SPM fail type of modshop owners that you despise upon can know way more real knowledge than you do.
Pretty much most of us here don't need such credibility boosting pointers to prove ourselves, but merely by what we write here. Plain simple real, verifiable, logical, and understandable facts.
When people mentioned heat, then you talk so much unrelated shit on material thermodynamics that has no relation to the issue. Already highlighted that petrol combustion temperature is higher than diesel counterpart and this limits the material choices to the actuation parts to really top grade non mass market pricing materials, but still want to made things up and anyhow simplifying fact that you can't understand. Talk so much shit about VGT, then here's your chance to embarrass us by naming any mass market petrol engined cars that are available now with VGT.
Trying too hard to boost yourself....here's another shit : never happen to hear intake manifold crack other than physically smashing it on the ground; only exhaust manifold can crack during operation. Intake manifold crack....laugh die me.....

You're not Ford fan probably, never follow up with their progress back then? They did fit the 1.0T in Mondeo as part of environmental friendly campaign and to brag how great they were in putting 1.0T able to pull the heavy Mondeo. The plan failed and didn't go into production.
I gave you a hand to be on the fair side of things when Ginny posted something that isn't right, but you did your best to memalukan sendiri. Go see the brochure link la....go play with ford uk configurator la....1.0T mondeo trim line still active dear expert.
