symptoms of a blown turbo?

[indecisive]

ok, I think I blew my turbo. but I'm new to this whole forced induction thing so I don't know.


it happened at high revs(near redline) and now when I start boosting/coming out of vac all hear is "SHHHHHHHHHHH" and see black smoke out of my tailpipe.

It runs fine out of boost and what not, it started idling high today though at 1200rpm.

Travis and I changed my intake manifold on the weekend and saw LOTS of blowby coming out of the turbo into the charge pipe. it was just coated in oil.


what do you guys think?

If the turbo is blown, then that's good and bad. I'm out of a car, but now I can do an engine swap...or slap on my T28..but I'd rather do the swap so I don't waste money doing the turbo, then swapping.

Any help/thoughts are appreciated

ps: I'm also running 10psi non-intercooled
