Basically the waste gate fucked up and let the car Plant the booste gauge past the red it looked like. I jsut looked for a SECOND THEN TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. The whole manifold was red hot. the engine still runs the turbo still spools fine. just the car spews out thick white smoke and has about 40 hp. Goes up all the rpms fine just real slow. It sounds liek bearing knock but could be something else :(. It so low milage too its such a shame. ILL pull the head off this week end my self see if anything is cracked and try to rotate the engine to see if it is a bearing. if it is sell it as is. If not clean up the engine and throw a new gasket on it. Pray for me guys lol. oh yeah thanks to twin saabs for the DIY head gasket. if anyone has tips let me know
thanks
