My turbo has had a smoking problem for about 2 weeks now, then last night it started making a sizzling noise, like dumping water on the manifold, still not sure what it is, but now the turbo is not spooling at all. I know its crazy but would it be okay to drive my car?? I still have to get to work and back untill i can get time to fix my car. plus if anybody knows anybody i need a new turbo, t25-t28 nothing crazy because im just getting tired of spending money on this car
