Alright so it was -25 this morning here in minnesota and i get in my car later on this after noon headed up town.
Cars running good i took off from a stop sign gettin into the boost and the turbo started making this howling screetching sound? The best way to explain it is it sounds like its grinding on something.


Im thinking that the turbo finaly went bad 145k on it original turbo but everythings fine no leaks nothing missing only i dont got full power altho it sounds like its boosting fine. Not check engines lights on.
There was a few days ago it came on but i filled my tank with gas and now its gone but it seems sketchy with getting boost and if i kick it down i swear the turbo will explode least it sounds like it.

Im guessing the turbo went bad? huh

well i took off the TIP and felt the turbo theres a decent amount of shaft play so im guessing that its rubbin on the turbo housing making that whining sound!

So now i need a new turbo!, im thinking sence i need a new one ill go with a K04-01.. Any suggestions!?
