Well, while driving the car last night I lost all power above half throttle, just revving and wasn't getting any boost. Cleared all the codes and checked for anything loose or leaking and found nothing. Pulled the pipe from the manifold and felt some boost revving it in park, but driving did the same, slow acceleration while just revving, at first boost was waay high without opening the wastegate, then it would throw a code and the have wastegate wide open with no boost. I got under it and was able to push both wastegates open by hand and finally ran an endoscope down to both output turbines. The back looks like it's just started to get chewed up and the front looks like it's bent to **** and has oil in it, both look like they've probably been wobbling around. The new plan is to just run the manifold straight to the filter and lock the wastegates open and try to get an N/A tune for it to keep it on the road since I don't drive it often anyway. Going to work on getting all the fun bolt ons and upgrade everything I can in winter... Gotta love ebay turbos
