Well in the past week, my turbo has been spooling alot louder. Sounds pretty neat.

Anyways, this past weekend, had the car apart, and had the car on. Friend wants to hear the motor, so I pulled on the throttle cable and have it a couple revs.

During the revs, I notice a "rattle" from the turbo/manifold region.

Could my turbo be going bad?

I'm not really sure what to check for. :(

rattle? like detonation or rod knock?
if you're lucky it's just an exhaust leak

I'm not really sure, just sounds like something is rattlign around.

I've never personally heard rod knock before, so I could'nt tell ya that.

I'm gonna pull the exhaust manifold cover and see tomorrow
