Bad news - my (used) Greddy turbo is now howling like a siren, my boost is gone and the bearing will no doubt soon be spewing oil all over.

My eleven-month wait for MM's upgrade kit has been in vain and I now have to swing everything back to N/A so I can get to work.......

Needless to say, I'm not happy at all......

Not.

Happy.

At all.

No, it's past that point, the exhaust wheel has been grinding on the housing and worn a funny shape......

How soon is the car going back to stock? Can you hold off a week or so to see if I can get my local guy to get off the fence?
