I,m not really serious about the turbo. I just ordered one from Erie. I just transplanted the engine in my S70, and I'll bet your engine failed from oil circulation problems as did mine. Mine showed up as turbo seal/bearing failure, and I killed all flying insects on I-80 just west of the Delaware Water Gap. I estimate I pumped 3 quarts of oil into the exhaust system while I was trying to get to the next exit.
If you pull the valve cover (top of the engine) you will probably find gobs of gunk in the oil passages.
I'll send pictures when I get a chance.
Good luck.
