Message	This may be a stupid question but I'm kind of in a bad situation. My dd just got totaled so now I need to drive my Z to work. I can't afford to rent a car right now. Problem is one of the turbos is leaking oil so if the car idles for more then 10-30 seconds it billows smoke. My commute is 45 minutes of just stop and go traffic so this isn't going to work. Is there any way to kind of stop the turbos so from running so they won't leak oil I can get to work with getting pulled over. Pulling a vacuum line or something of the sort? Not sure if this is remotely possible just trying to think of anything.
