What was the car doing that made you think the turbo is bad?
I always see 5sfTe guys swapping out turbos left and right, and yet people with bone stock mr2's and alltracs use them for years without any problems. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Well the problem was that the car was boosting fine, but then it stopped making boost. Thought it was a boost leak for awhile, but mainly we think that the turbo is bad because the turbine doesn't spin when the car is running. mhm. -------------------- |

Can you spin the wheel by hand when the car is not running? If it spins fine, but is not boosting, then you have a boost OR exhaust leak, thats causing the problem,
Normally, when a turbo dies, it either starts to make funny noises, or you see lots of blue smoke from the turbo seals going out. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

shall check to see if it spins by hand...i didnt see any blue smoke or hear any weird noise other than the divertor blowing off...maybe something in the videos can clarify things...the guy said the throttle or intake manifold took too much air in and thinks it went bad...do you remember derrick what he said...ill give him a call later as well.
