modding it isn’t the issue here bran…
when i cleaned the intake manifold, the turbo barley spun free as it was since it was trying to force air through a straw it put ALOT of stress on the turbo.
then, the actuator for the VNT mechanism was rotted out so the vanes were stuck in one posistion and boost control was non-existant…
if the intake manifold wasn’t as fucked as it was i can gaurntee you it would’ve been 100% fine.
