I am new to turbos and to buicks. I just picked up an 84 T-Type with several mods done to it. And a couple of days after having it the turbo seems to be acting up. It won't build up any boost and it makes a clanking sound when I get on it, but not when it just idles or it is in park. I was wondering if any of you would have any idea on what could cause that. I'm pretty sure its just the turbo but like I said this is my first turbo powered car and I am not sure exactly what it is. Thanks in advance, and when everything is running right hopefully you be reading my posts in the kill and fish section.
 
you need to take it off and see if the turbine wheels are turning freely and if it leaking oil/. probably bad , i had a hugewhole in my up pipe when i got my car and it would not build boost ?
