the tag getting caught in the wheel when it spools ? nah just playin, take it off and have it checked by someone reputable mate, better safe than sorry, or at least take it to a performance shop and get them to pop the hood and look at it also check your lines to the turbo, oil pressure etc etc

Is their much play in the shaft? Also you might have a boost leak somewhere.

Sounds like your turbo base gasket (where the turbo bolts to the manifold ) Is leaking , mine did the same and it sounded like a B777 Opening its reverse thrusters lol
