Okay, I think I may have done something really bad to my car. Tell me what you think.

I was finishing up my vacuum hose install, putting everything back together. I only had the airbox left and went to put in the K&N filter I bought from Jason at the freakin RX7 STORE, and it was the wrong damn size....too small. So I say, well, I just want to see if it runs. So I put everything back together without the filter in...see where this is going?

So I go to start the car...cranks a couple then fires up. I was stoked, it sounded good, idling smooth, everything was fine. So I let it sit there idling for awhile when all the sudden I hear a LOUD banging metallic bashing sound. I was like WTF? It lasted for like 1 second then stopped. So I let it go for a little longer, and 15 seconds later it does it again. Sounded like it was inside the motor or turbos. Now I'm like ****, so I turn it off.

I immediately thought something got sucked into the turbo. So I take everything off agian to inspect. Nothing, no visible damage to the compressor wheel, nothing in the intake pipe...WTF?

I havent fired it back up yet, Im kinda scared....What do you guys think??

Okay, lets say something DID go through my turbos, how serious could it be? Am I going to have to replace the turbos? I checked the compressor wheel pretty thouroughly, and didnt see any superficial damage. I'm scared to go home man...
