I think i blew my turbo... can someone help me verify (yes i STFA and yes there is a vry loud noise
 
So this morning i get in the car and for the first time i notice a loud droning kind of noise, only when accelerating. Not to loud, but loud enough to make me want to takw it to the dealer (fine.) So tonight i hop in to go out and the car, as soon as i turn it on makes the loudest whining noise ever. High pitch and all. As i increase the rpms it increases. My question tho is if it were a blown turbo why would it be droning so damn loud at 1k rpm. could it be something else. I have noticed alot more spool up noise latley and i was feeling a loss in power too. I STFA but couldn't really find anything.

If i were to go to K04's would i need anything but the turbo's and inlets 710's and some kind of upgraded TBB (i am not talking about maximizing performance)

the plugin thing isn't working for me. I have seen a video before and it reminded me of it but maybe
 
a little lower pitched. Although the guy in the vid was hitting 7k rpm while i stayed under 4. Would it be whining at 1K? Happened soon as i started up the car

do u still have boost?

amercour 03-10-2006 09:28 PM

I have no way of telling. I "feel" that the power has decreased but have not really pushed it since
 
the loud loud noise started

amercour 03-10-2006 09:32 PM

I just got the plug in to work. yes it does durring the second part, although i have no exhaust
 
I have not had my window open so i don't know exactly how high pitched it would get. I noticed when he closed his window it didn't sound so high pitch. It does sound something like that. But what i don't get is why is it droning at 1k (loudly, but deeper. Make no mistake its high pitch but not dentist drill)

no boost gauge?

amercour 03-10-2006 09:37 PM
