As most of you know I have been doing a lot of research and asking about a turbo for my car and stuff. I guess I have a little more time to look and decide since I have this in my garage now, lol

Yeah, i have to take my rods into a machine shop to have them honed(bottom end enlarged) the oil clearance was to tight. Rotation was way to tight.
I going try to get them to the shop by wed. If they knock them out in a day like they did my head, it will be on the road by the weekend.
But im also packing all my stuff up to get ready to leave. so rebuild has slowed abit.
But besides that, everything looks good. and went back together with no problem
**The Loadout**
1mm+ Supertechs
BC valve springs/retainers, Ferrea valve stems
Ported Head
2.0 Wiseco pistons/MAP Billet Rods, ACL Rod/Main Bearings
GNS Double Pumpers, Aquamist HFS-1
Oh and the clutch was Exedy, but its shot lol (Thanks to SuperK) ACT 6Puck Sprung disk going in.

I'm no expert, but I would say:
No boost or boost problems
Car will feel weak,
Noise from turbo,
Might have a bad smell or smoke coming out the exhaust if the turbo is burning oil or leaking oil,

That's all that I could think of, but the experts on here will tell you more.

Do you think you turbo is going out? If so why?
