ok so my girlfriend has had this car for quite sometime now and really did not keep up on the maintance. so im trying to help her out and get it fixed back up and in good running condition. some issues, oil leaks, coolant leaks, and the engine just feels like it is not delevering 200 HP at all. pretty sure the turbo is shot as i rarely hear it spool, the car has 181k on it, so that right there is enough indication to me that the t25 needs replacing. so question is with that t25 shot, will it really cause the car to have barely hany HP. its acceleration such, i can hold the gas pedal to the floor in all gears and it will barely pull. I mean it will drive normal, but feels like im driving a 3 cyc geo bc its lagging power. any help on this is appreciated
