Is your actuator holding the boost okay? Any major leaks anywhere? popped off pipes ect?

^^ i have checked all the pipes yes it held boost fine now its started to smoke when boost gauge hits 0

if the actuator arm came off, isnt the turbo just free to spin till it pops?

[Guest cheshireglanza]

^^ put the arm back on went for drive car boosted for spilt second then stopped so has the turbo parked in arm would have been off it for no longer then 500yards
