Those look pretty bad. You'll need to replace that pretty quickly. Mostly likely cause is over-spin caused by a leak in the intercooler pipework. You'll need to find that or you'll just keep chewing up the turbos.

Okay if I was to get a turbo upgrade could I run it on stock tune until I got other supporting mods? Or is my only option getting another stock turbo?

With our turbo, we give you options to where you can run with a stock setup all the way up to heavily modified. Check out this link for more info (select the 6 fin option to run on a milder or stock setup):

Nice, I didn't know you can customize the TEARBOW Bryan.
