Message	My passenger side turbo has been getting progressively louder for the past month or so. I haven't been driving it too much, either. At WOT it sounds pretty cool, like a jet engine spooling up. Unfortunately I know what this means, since it happened before on my 1986 turbo Z. On that car, which I drove every single day, the turbo lasted a couple weeks from the time it started getting loud until the time it broke. I don't drive this car as much, so I guess it'll last a few months. The perfect excuse to upgrade.
