Message WEll why would my turbos make that sound tho. See, this was the second JDM engine in my car. The first JDM engine went 2.5 months after installation, they warrantied that and gave me a new JDM engine. The first jdm engine, they said that the oil dumbed out of the engine because of a oil pan problem and it destroyed the engine. My turbos never made that noise on the first engine. So I took it back to them, they replaced it with another JDM engine, I got it back, the turbos started to make that noise i described and then the engine overheated.

I took it back to them, they told me it had to do something with timing. I beleive they said turbo timing but i guess im wrong as this happened a year ago. So I towed it back to them, they fixed the turbos, it didnt make that noise again when they gave me the car back. I mean before the first engine died, i never had any overheating problems whatsoever... I have a new radiator already in it.. since the first JDM engine...

I know nothing about cars, only a little, Could it be it was just a bad engine off the start with already bad head gaskets that was just waiting to break? What are some more causes of overheating that would cause my car to overheat =/
