Well, since I posted in this thread earlier, I'll be replacing my turbo on my 97 in the morning. Got home last night and pulled the intake boot off and I have at least an 1/8th inch movement in and out. Have been hearing a funny sound for a few days and last night found out what it was.

A friend has an aftermarket turbo for me so I'll be installing that tomorrow. Don't remember what size, but he said it'll go good with my new injectors.

That's great that your friend has another for you. I'm waiting for daylight here. Can you believe it, three toolboxes and no 12 pt. 8mm or 5/16 sockets. Last night I snapped a little 8mm wrench and this morn I found a 5/16 wrench and removed the EBPV bolts, but now to remove the backplate I have no choice but to get a socket. I have a way of making a 1 hr. project into a day.

I hope that ain't the case for me! I know what you're saying though.
