I think it was on SNL when SNL was good. I did see him on many late night talk shows and his character was funny as hell. Not that hell is funny.

Yeah maybe. But it has 12 wheels and gets the job done.

Kewl, I crawl around on my rig much more than just on the weekends. But having workmanship from a shop fail who installed a full exhaust manifold is not exactly one of those things you plan or inspect for.
Your statement was premature and uninformed. You had zero clue of the cause or the full situation behind what happened other than my statement the pipe fell off the turbo.
It was caused because someone incorrectly installed the pipe on the turbo and crushed the belling on the pipe. The torquing of the frame pulled it out as I went up the bozeman pass causing it to fail.
Earlier this week I found two clamps partially tightened but not completely tightened on the intake boots from the turbo to CAC. Those alone will cause a boost lose effecting fuel mileage in a major negative way. Something else I have been battling since this job was completed.

It was a shops fault alright got it. But it wasnt leaking? No black stain behind the turbo?
No one is blaming you for it, but if it makes you feel better, i destroyed my previous truck cuz it had an antifreeze leak and i put water in it, and was too lazy to go and pull the plug under the radiator.
Also...
The last time i took my truck to a shop. Oh wait thats never happen before.

There are some things I just let a shop do so I can deal with other items related to running a business. And replacing an exhaust manifold in March in 10 degree weather outside in the back yard without a shop isn't my idea of fun anymore.
No, there was no black staining, there was ZERO clue it was failing. The pipe was installed onto the turbo incorrectly. There is a 1" or more portion of it that was flattened and over half of the bell is ripped off.
