I don't normally put junk thru turbos so got me a bit stumped there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might actually keep the turbo on for a while to fool the Expensive Daewoo guys and tell them its turbo and supercharged.The turbo shaft bearings are fine. No issue there. Must have been some rubber piece that went thru as no marks on the edges of the blade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
