    You know your car hates turbos when it takes an hour to pull them.

    I'm not laughing at your misery bro, It's just I can pull turbos in about an hour also. ha ha

    I'd say by the looks of that it might have been a balancing issue. Were you getting puffs of smoke before that? If the seal went out the oil can throw it off balance.

    Sounds like it was leaking (maybe a balance issue) and seized up. Lame.

    Does the shaft still spin? or is it seized?

    If it seized while spooled, lots of things could happen. It's obviously just speculation on my part
