Turbo

94 F350 with idi and factory turbo.
I finally got it running, but with a lot of hiccups!
At first, it would go into limp mode after 10 minutes of driving. For the heck of it, I let it run for 5 hours at idle. Intermittently, I would jump on accelerator to rev up to 3000 rpm's. After that time, I took for a ride. It wouldn't go over 40mph, but no limp mode action. After several days of this , it finally reached 75 mph. No limp mode either. I drove an entire week no problems. However, I was asked if the turbo kicks in. How would I know? Is it discouraged to drive if it's not working/ will it damage something else if I continue to drive it if turbo is not working?
on another note, where can I find parts? Looking for same grill that has rotted away!
Thanks in advance
