Damn...Big Turbo/J-Spec Engine Problem.
Well, I recently had an S5 J-spec motor put in my S4 Turbo II. Everything from my TII were put on (the S5 turbo had ridiculous play) it. When I had driven it to the person's house (who will not be named) the turbo was working just peachy. I get it back, and now I'm having all sorts of problems. The Turbo *Does Not* spool, It's a very heart-wrenching clunk clunk sound when I get to a spool-able RPM. And my car bogs. Almost killing the engine, it can hardly idle, and it can't rapidy drop from anywhere above 3k without the engine dying (unless I immediately rev it). It hesitates even then to rev back up. One I hit about 3.5k (or around when the turbo would kick in), my car would jerk and bog back and forth, until I let of the gas (and sometimes not even then.)
The guy who put the J-spec in says my Turbo is toast, which I do believe to be true, but It's hard to believe it is causing all of these symptoms, unless it's hogging the air-flow throughout the engine...
Help?

you needa check the compression.. it sounds like the engine is blown.. did you do a rebuild on the Jspec engine? those are a luck of the draw kind of things.. you eventually do get a bad one that needs a rebuild. just do a compression check.. take the spark plugs out.. and turn the engine over.. listen to the "whoosh" sound.. they should all sound the same..
