So yesterday morning my truck almost sounded like there was a owl under the hood. It kinda bothered me but didn't see like a big deal. Parked the truck over night at a buddies house. Picked it up this morning and it kinda got worse. Turbo started to get louder and louder I stopped at a buddies shop and it started blowing white smoke like crazy shut it off for a while. Drove the truck home and it just kept getting louder and louder till it finally let go. Wont build any boost. So what's next? Chetta 4094??? Defiantly dont have the funds right now for a new turbo but I guess that's my only choice.

Norcal Nick is selling an LMM stock turbo with only like 25k on it for 450 if you dont have the cash for an upgrade.

In the for sale are like others said Billy has a used one for sale. If you want a 4094avnt Garrett it's 1,840 shipped. I can also get you a fleece turbo if you want that but will have to check if they will take yours as a core there is no core on the 4094avnt or I can make you a good deal on a Htt66. Let me know if I can help you out also make sure you pull the intercooler it will need cleaned and hope to get and parts out of it.
Thanks

try gm? you have a 5 year 100,00mile warranty on it...

The truck is defiantly not stock so I lost that when I started.
I'm going to see what I can put together funds wise in the next couple day's and either put a stock turbo back in it or maybe a danville stage 2.

Get a stage 1 Danville they are priced alot less and still make a night and day difference in power and sound. If your looking to stay with a vgt.
