What exactly was done to qualify this as a "torture test"? Looks to me like they tested the turbo under PERFECT operating conditions.

Torture testing a turbo is retarded as there are only a handful of reasons why they fail.

Depending on the fuel, it could be seeing higher pre-turbo EGTs compared to in a vehicle.
