Default Re: Stop Turbo from turning?

stop driving the car now! That racket you hear is the turbine hitting the houseing and probably sending chunks of turbine into your engine. If it lets go all together you will (and might already) need a new engine. You can't really stop the turbine from spinning. That is how the engine gets air wether it is boosting or not it still spins to let air into the engine.
