Just a few days ago my turbo on my 1991 MR2 started to squeak when it spools up. I've heard other turboed cars do this before, but I don't know if it means something is wrong or not. It kinda just makes a high pitched squeaking noise when it's boosting... and there's no loss in power either. Any ideas?
BTW it's an ihi-rhc6 turbo, if that helps. |

well if its a water and oil cooled turbo something might have gone wrong causing a leak somewhere. just said to check it cuz it doesnt hurt too. as for taking a long time to warm up and not running at the same temp, replace the thermostat. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
