Blown Stock Turbo? Ways to go?

Shameless plug, but I have a brand new CTS for sale cheap if you're interested.

Got a used Boost Logic kit before I got to install the CTS so no longer need it

Remnant Performance drops tomorrow at 12pm. Just another option. Comes with an intake, charge pipe, a heatshield, a turbo, and a 2 week shipping time (jk).

@Maverick If your turbo is still building boost I’d look at the valve cover and pcv system, very prone to failures and will smoke a lot

I thought of this too. Bogging right off idle is usually an airflow/vacuum problem. Seeing white smoke is worrisome but a hose could've popped off somewhere. Also could be the turbo failing slowly, going into boost a few more times might make it completely dead and cause total shaft failure

So i'll take a second look at the PCV, i know there was a boost leak but was confirmed that the rear piston ring seal failed and the CHRA was damaged so i have less worries about the engine. The stock turbo is getting rebuild and then i'll go down the path if i want to keep the car. I have bad anexity after one thing break even though i might have caused it.

Stock turbo seal rebuild isn't the worst. Just make sure when driving hard that your oil is good and up to temp.

Charge piping will likely need to be cleaned of oil residue since it blew some under boost.

I would buy this if it was the 6 port. Great price
