O.K. - Just went through this with a N/A I bought. The Turbo should be the same. Do not try and repair the rod. I tried but the thing came out 10 grams lighter than the rest and a bit shorter. I got some rods off ebay and they weight to within .5 grams of the others. The crank will need to be machine to .25mm from stock but do not buy parts until the crank is back from the machine shop. This may sound strange but most of the junk ended up in the cam tower so that needs to be disassembled and cleaned. Check the underside of the cam followers. Obviously, the block will need to be cleaned and I would get the block head interface surface.
I have heard various opinions as to if the turbo rods are forged - if they are not, and the rods are the same as the N/A rods, I have 3 remaining. Good Luck.
