Leonie claims that none of the upgraded engines with the machined compressors have failed, although we have seen some on here. I think that everyone that has had a failure, especially those with upgraded compressors, should contact wren and let them know. I would urge the owners of such engines too contact wren and speak to Mike Murphy, give them a chance too repair and extend the warranties, then post on here the result of your inquiries. On this forum then, we can have a record of what happens to these engines.

Wow, all this, what could reasonably be called a, tirade, and you are still going to use that engine?

Hmmm....
