LOL! ever heard a turbo when it grenades??? i was at a local import shop when a guy with a GS-T eclipse came in.
"man, i think my turbo is going out..."
the bearings failed and the shaft was just letting the compressor wheel GRIND the housing. luckily, it didnt break the impeller apart so he didnt have to go fishing for pieces throughout his engine...
