I had a chance to have a play around with the car today i managed to fit a water feed to the turbo and remove the oil feed restrictor to have a look i was expecting to see a 0.6mm hole in the restrictor causing the problem but it wasnt it had a large hole about 3-4mm so it cant be that i also unpluged the coil and cranked the engine over with the oil feed pumping into a jug for about 15second and it pumped out 300ml so there no blockages. Iv got a pictuer of the restrictor and also took a vid of the car running to show the sound its making to be honest its worse then i thought and i think the turbo id as good as dead



So is it possible that the turbo has died because its not had a water feed? I know the main next thing is to get an oil pressure gauge to the car to see whats going on there so il get on ebay in a minute and buy one and go from there.
