Got a couple questions for you though...

1) Do you know if there is a major power loss? I mean does the car just not feel like it has the balls it used to?

2) Does your turbo make an OVERLY loud whinning?

You could have a boost leak (I think I am thinking of the right thing here). If not that, then I would think that your turbo is damaged. Either it's bearings are going, or just SOMETHING is wrong in it. Well I guess there could be damaged fins...MAJORLY, or something causing friction on the shaft.

Listen to your turbo, is it spooling with your engine...or does the sound take 10 seconds to whine up?

Give more info, you will get more in depth help.
