      (sh)It happens. Grab another turbo. You might do a leakdown/compression check, just in case the rest of the engine is in similar shape. With any luck the previous owner stayed on top of mainenence and oilchanges, and just didn't know about letting the turbo cool off some before shutting it off.
      '90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
      '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.
