I recently put new gaskets on my turbo i took the turbo out to do this in the process i broke the bolt that holds the oil feed line off of the engine.I got a new bolt and put it all back together. It started right up. i started to pull out and thats when i here the nosie. i think it kinda sounds like the turbo has no oil but i don't know. everything on the car is pretty much stock. i have a 3 inch exhaust, greddy bov, and a 14b turbo. i know i have at least a couple exhaust leak. but it was runing fine till i messed with it. please help
 
disconnect the feed line from the turbo and have one of your friends crank the engine, I would suggest pulling the fuel pump fuse so it won't fire. Then you can make sure your turbo is getting oil. Take your intake off and spin the wheel and see if you can feel or hear anything, though its a long shot. Is there a lot of shaft play?
