Bring it down here and I'll have a look at it for you :P

Is the turbo a bin job rather than a rebuild then?

yep in the bin,its snaped the shaft and started to wear the houseing so not worth rebuilding plus after its rebuilt it needs to be balanced.
i am going to look into a upgrade that is easyer and cheaper to find for when i blow this one
