Hey guys, need some expert help please.

Basically i blew my turbo, installed gt3040/3082r (top mount manifold, wastegate etc etc the usual). Now the car misfires under load, when idling, all these strange noises, clanks etc are coming out. Very worried. I have my mate looking at it tomorrow if no success im taking it to a specialist.

If anyone has any suggestions on what to look for and check out before i tow the car away, please pm me or write here. Help is appreciated in these hard times :(

i think more info required.

When your turbo "blew" did the rear exhaust wheel come off or did the front oil seal let go causing alot of oil to get into your engine, because if it's oil, i'd be cleaning out the intercooler and replaceing plugs as cleaning plugs is often done incorectly.

I'd check over your work, make sure you didn't disturb anything else when replaceing the turbo, with a keen eye on intake leak's, are you running a AFM still ? or Map sensor? as a vacum loss inbetween the afm and turbo is not cool

When the turbo let go, the rear exhaust wheel didn't come off. Seals not sure will double check with mate.

We checked all the the vacum lines and all seems fine, afm is still there and so is sensor. The noise is comming from manifold and bottom of the engine. weird, very weird. Its very loud noise, banging, clicking etc and as i said before, misfiring reallly badly.

:S:S

Im just scared that its the engine, Dont really wanna do engine re build. Spent on it all day.
