Hello all,
 
Pulled the hose from my RS turbo and bingo! The turbo is seized. Does
not spin freely, no play in the shaft, literally. This turbo had 40K
miles on it. Now I know what is causing my smoking. I feel a little
silly in that I have always had ur-q's and felt that this car hauled
ass, but I never have driven it with the functioning turbo (I have had
the car for 3k miles)! The hoppen stage 2 chip is impressive. Does
anyone have experience in getting these turbo's rebuilt? Send it to KKK?
Thanks for all of your suggestions.
Greg
