my thoughts are that going through two levels of psychic diagnosis
rather than just one is just too hard. get physical access to the car,
describe exactly what you see, then report back on wednesday.

"GST"? What's that?

Honda never sold any automobile with a turbo in the United States in 1997.
Is this an aftermarket turbocharger?

Also, turbos and oil are certainly tightly interconnected. A turbo will fry
with extreme haste without sufficient lubrication.
