Thanks for the offer, I got the hoist as well.
As for the engine, the vacuum hose that feeds back to the boost controller popped off. With a sudden loss of pressure feedback the controller tried to spool the turbo even more to maintain boost, voila. I now now what detonation sounds like. The good news is that there were no broken pieces of apex seals that went through the turbo. I'm hoping it's just a cracked seal, and no damage is done to the housings, so I can keep the rebuild cost down.
