running a pretty stock ca W/s15 turbo. the intake was making a pretty loud jingle (like keys or bells) noise. then it stopped and i tried to show someone else but it wouldnt do it again. should i be worried? i thought my turbo was about to take a dump.

i have put about 10-15 miles on the car since my last post and today the jingle noise was much louder and worse than yesterday. if my turbo brakes can it hurt the motor?

Hey Jason,

If the turbo was really going bad, id suspect the seals would go and you would notice smoke from your exhaust. Its probably something vibrating. On my last SR I had a loose bolt that would be vibrate. Check the bolts on the exhaust manifold, it could be the loose powersteering resivour thats not attached
