    rather stumped on this one. PLEASE throw your input on this one.

    okay, so heres the deal. girlfriend missed her train 3 days ago so i drove her downtown to work. upon my return trip as i neared the top of the exit ramp on the e-way turbo stops spooling.. now i think SHIT! REASON TO THROW A K04 OR 28RS IN! well... moving out in 3 weeks. so not an option.. it actually seems liek my cat took a shit. is it possible for a blown cat to cause this? i can hear it attempt to spool but the exhaust sounds clogged and hesitant and what not.. =[ help!

    Could be a clogged cat.

    pull you cat off and gut it... if it makes a difference, good.. problem solved. If not then your driving around on a blown turbo till you can change it

    Verify that your intercooler piping is not loose somewhere.
