Bad turbo -> no boost?? (+)

[Mr. Y]

Well, my car accelerates bad and I hear sound ("woo...."), that change its frequency with gasflow (no RPM)... I disassembled intake, I saw huge shaft freeplay.
About week ago, turbo was able to build boost, now it can't at all (and sound become louder)... So, I'm pretty sure, that turbo needs replacement...

So 2 questions:
1). Can I drive my car slowly, or it is very risky to damage engine? (if turbo parts will fly into intake, for example)

2). I saw website, where was described how to replace turbo (It was called "time savings" or something in this way). Can't you give me link, please?

Thank you.

PS: doesn't anybody sell upgraded CT-26 (or something compatible with the same flanges)?

Maybe the wastegate acutator has gone bad and thats why you're not buildig boost.

Any smoke from the exhaust?

 

[Mr. Y]

no smoke at all, but very big shaftplay (about 1mm radial) and bad "woooo" sound (begins at 4000 rpm in neutral, and at 2200 rpm in any gear)... Also when I let off the throttle, I hear scratching noise (not very loud).
I think my turbo is dead, but I can't understand why it doesn't build any boost?

PT will upgrade your turbo $475 or you can buy one off their shelf for ~$775 (i think)

[Mr. Y]

considering my geographic location, I can't call them. Besides that, my speaking English is not good enought...
