Turns out he did need that retract button, because it took some WIENER from the list no time flat to report Chris's mistaken post back to Javad.
 
What the heck, people?

Dave,

My mechanic has confirmed my belief that the turbo is failing.
It's providing boost but not as much as it should, and the compressor
wheel has been hitting the inlet.

Javad has shipped me a replacement turbo, but he seems concerned 
that Garret is going to say because this is his first warranty claim
for a Garret turbo (so he states). For the moment I have promised to
not report the turbo failure to the general public (but I never
promised to not share it with a trusted knowledgable person like 
yourself). So for now please don't mention the fact that the turbo
did fail to anyone else.



Where's that damn retract email button when you need it, LOL!  Chris, I hope this all goes smooth for you.  It sounds like Javad's on top of it so I wouldn't worry.
