Today I put some new engine mounts on, whilst laying on my back looking up I could see that the air intake to the turbo was not secured properly. If you look at the picture you can see why, so a new one will be next on my ever growing list of parts to replace, whilst there I looked at the turbo and spotted some broken/damaged fins.
my question is although there is no movement in the turbo should I be unduly worried
Cheers
Dave

That turbo is fucked. I was expecting to see some little chips. Will be well off blance and spin high rpm that they do I would replace. Or get re built. Check the intercooler see if there any bits in there. I'm going to be removing mine shortly. 26/8 There's no blade damage, no play, no leaks off oil out side. Just the seal on the hot side so it put oil though the exhaust, if your going for a rebuild seal kit may be worth a shot.
 
Hi I'm new here. Looking to buy a 944 Turbo. Was wondering if anyone knows a garage called Augment Automotive and Barlyn Services? Thanks Soli
 
Yes. That's David and Tom barks. They done loads off engine work and wielding to my car and I'm in Kent. Worth the travel for me
