I just replaced the good turbo in our 92 9000T. The former owner had a dealer rebuilt unit installed. He told me it never boosted high after the intstall but the dealer told him that was "normal". I heard a metallic rattle but figured it was a loose nut somewhere. COme to find out..it was the wastegate flap that fell off the lever arm and went down the downpipe. SO this turbo is good but needs another exhaust housing. I called junkyards looking for the housing with no luck. I ended up buying another complete turbo off ebay. I planned on saving it as a backup but the new turbo only had 1k miles on it before the guy wrecked his car. Apparently, it was boosting too much for him!
