Ouch, that sucks. I'd still run that ****** until it blows.

How did the filter look? Any holes in it?

Any battle scars on the compressor housing? Maybe it's been scraping, broke a piece of the turbone off and it floated around there doing that damage

I bet that you had some stuff in your intake when you put the turbo on and turbo sucked it in only that one time.

stainless filters are crap; When dirt comes to one of them they escort it right into your intake; they dont put up any kind of fight.

btw; sell me your old turbo or at least the turbine housing
