After the oil and filter change, I ran the car about 50 miles (mostly highway) without lights or further incident.
I did stay off the turbo and will baby it until I feel better about it.
On the overheating.... the temp gauge reads normal but the coolant reservoir boils. It's probably done it 8 or 9 times since I've owned the car (2 years) and I've not noticed any problems or white smoke.
It boils due to the fan not running. (the original resistor burned out) I rigged up a resistor I read about on this board and bought two and mounted them on a old piece of license plate behind the fan. When one goes out, it won't be any hassle to switch the wires.
