Stripped the turbo to see what's missing. As I have never pulled a turbo apart I don't know what I am looking for. Lol

Always fun!

This bit sits in the hole of the exhaust side

There are some score marks in the downpipes and I have pulled the exhaust off. Found a little bush that had some holes in it in there. I haven't come across the shay that sat inside the turbine yet!

I like posts where things are stripped. On car forums too.

I have had a look on how things work. Article on there helped backup why I think I knew about turbo's and put me right on what I didn't know. Looks like the impeller inside the exhaust side of the turbo has vanished into my exhaust. It may be stuck in my center silencer which I'm cutting out anyway.
