is my turbo bad?

[apexi287]

sorry for yet another post it just seems that once i fix one thing something else happens its a never ending cycle with these supras..basically i replaced my turbo with a turbo i got for free because it had a "cracked seal" but it turned out to be my BHG and the one i put in had very bad shaft play it was driving fine for a while well a decent amount of time and now all of a sudden i start my car and itll just stall..ill start it sometimes to try and see/hear whats going on rev it up a little let off the gas and ill get a puff of smoke from the turbo whitish blueish and it lightly smokes..is my turbo bad..would it also be causing my stalling?..o yeah and my BOV doesnt really blow off anymore a light wooosh but thats all but thats from no/little boost..so what do you people think..i need to get this f'n thing on the road

Dont think the turbo would have anything to do with your stalling, but maybe. It sounds like its time for a turbo rebuild.

Your stalling may be related to your BOV.

lol yeah umm ill just go with the hardpipe kit..its a supra i cant do half ass on anything

 

[MDCmotorsports]

ITs a mk3. I'll quote you on that when it breaks for the first time and you have to go home, work, yada yada yada.

And the pvc intercooler piping isn't half ass. Just creative and cheap.

I disagree........... :nono:

i agree with mdc. My hardpipes work great
could look nicer with shiny metal, but college or 400 dollar pipes. ill stick with pvc till im pulling down 60k a year

just my 2 cents.
