let me run this by you....


I got waste gate rattle like a mofo... sounds just like this:

I have to SMOG, so going to uninstall my tune, run only premium octane, put OEM intake back on and CP w/ DV. Leaving FMIC on. Run the car for at least a week as stock, before SMOG.

So since I have to do this, I was going to take it in for a check up on the turbo's. From what I can tell, its a sign of going bad/out. Since I am still under CPO and way under the Turbo Warranty, I feel I should have no hassle. What do you think?

EDIT:

saw you replied on that thread.
nah, they will only put in an order for new wastegates. unless your exhaust is smoking and burning oil, that's another story. mine was like that before and it's only wastegates. honestly the stock turbos are good since we are only doing mild tune. they actually last pretty long unless you abuse them A LOT!
