		Easiest way to check the intake pipe is to have a look, run your fingers around it to check there's no gap. Can go in through the driver's wheel arch.

		Where can I get one of these bushes from? May be turbo upgrading in the next 6 monthsor so so is it a thing needed to be done asap or not? 
	
	
	
Cheers

		The central shaft sits on bearings, you can get new bearing and seal kits from turbo specialists. It's a pretty involved job, not worth it for six months use imo.
