Update:Now that I just read that post about the bearings, I am getting kinda nervous about that now.....

Hell yeah, that post scared the crap out of me.

Plus my damn turbo seals are still gone. It smokes like a chimney at a stop light or when ever I leave the car with the turbo timer on.

POS turbo, i guess its time for that T3T4:D

ahh if you ever hang out on the soxc boards they all talk about the "death rattle" as long as the oils fresh and you dont let it run low you shouldnt have to worry if yah do then its just calling you to go bigger and better....

joe i think you timming is off. is the turbo getting really really hot?and after 10psi youll boost cut and it will try and put you out on the hood

It's a bit hot... I guess no more or no less than a normal turbo would be. My bro's Talon TSi would get pretty warm up under there.

Would a sticky wastegate give me pretty crappy throttle reponse too? I mean, when I first start the motor (cold start) it takes it a few chugs to get going and if I try to help it by giving gas, it has no affect weather the pedal is all the way to the floor or not touched at all.

I am going to work on it tomorrow.... I just put in 60 hours this week at work and I am DEAD tired.....

BTW... Jon, IM me if you want to come down tomorrow. We can take a look at your car too if it is still acting up.

Whats funny is, ill be sitting at a stop light for about a minute, and since the oil isnt really moving that fast thru the turbo while idling, smoke starts to build up and come out the exhaust.

I mean a big cloud of smoke, right onto the front of the car behind me. Then when I take off and the turbo spools up, it shots more smoke at the car behind me.

James Bond type stuff :thumbup
